I'm looking for inexpencive 65mm lens for 6x9 linhof.
Which lens has better resolution and contrast, Mamiya 65/6.3 or Angulon 65/6.8 (both lenses are about same age)?

Yuri,

I can tell you I was quite impressed with my Mamiya 65mm. I did not expect much from this older single coated lens but after a CLA it gave great color and sharpness. I took the 6x9 color neg up to a 16x20 inch print and it held together well. They are going for very little money too.

Cheers,
