Strength:
Compact size, large image circle, APO performance in the close focussing range, excellent performance as an all round lens.
Weakness:
None, even focussing is no problem in an outdoor situation. have never used it indoors. This is just a perfect field lens, its size, weight and general handling is ideal for use as a telephoto on 4x5, and the best part is that there is image circle that you will never get to use!

Strength:
Compact, large image circle, very sharp, and versatile.
Weakness:
None. Just maybe the perfect field lens. It can be used as a normal lens for 8x10 (my use) or as a telephoto lens for 4x5. It's excellent as a macro lens and makes a fabulous enlarger lens. The 67mm filter size means you can use filters from other systems with a stepup ring (72). I use 67mm filters from my Pentax 645 system and 72mm filters from my Canon system. The large image circle in use surprised me. Schneider quality is a given. This lens is a best buy. Similar Products Used: None |
