If you want sharp, sharp portraits... it'll certainly give that to you.
It's one of my most used (and favorite) lenses on 5x7 and 8x10. :)
Hi there--I've been working with an Ebony RW 4x5 down in Guatemala and Nicaragua, basically making street portraits. I've been using a Schneider 210/5.6 Copal 1 shutter lens. For some things, it was a little too tight. I'm considering adding a 150 but since I'm carrying everything on my back, I'd like to go light. Does this lens make sense: Schneider 150mm G-Claron 4x5 camera lens. Reading the threads, it sounds like a very nice, sharp lens. Any opinions?
Thanks,
Michelle
