When I used 810, a Fujinon 250 was my main lens, and a particular favourite for portraits.
Not too long a bellows extension, and rendered faces beautifully without compressing them.

I wonder if 10 years later the original poster is still shooting large format and wondering about this question?
That said, I like my 14" Kodak Commercial Ektar. Fast aperture, nice smooth transitions from sharp center focus to OOF areas.
Good question Jonny.
I hadn't noticed the OP received his 1st response to his question 10 years later. If hes not around this may be the reason. He has only posted 11 times.
Poor fellow. Come on back ya gotta an answer.
The first time, only two people answered. This time, quite a few responses. When this question was asked, I didn't have an 8x10 camera. Something like this is a good reference for later, though. Myself? I have both lenses and filters.
Which has come into vogue? Portraits or portrait lenses?
