I have two Fuji lenses: a new 125 CMW and a 240A that I bought used. The 240A has the chrome speed ring on the Copal shutter, and also has the same blue-green hue to the lens that my new 125 CMW...

If Fuji NPS will work for you, then you should consider Portra 400NC. Both of these films are lower contrast portrait films, but the Kodak is as fine grained as the Fuji, and is the only 400 speed...

If your budget is $2500., you might want to spend more money on glass, and less on the body. I went this route and got a Super Speed Graphic and a set (90mm, 125mm and 240mm) of Fujinon lenses for...

I would suggest that you buy an older Linhof Color rather than a modern field camera if you are not sure if 4x5 is going to work for you. Here are the advantages that I see over a DLC or a...

Perhaps I need to make myself a bit more clear. I have shot current Rodenstock lenses (Grandagon and Sironar -S) and I cannot see the difference looking at the film on a light table. At one point...

I think that Erics suggestions are a great improvement for my test.

I have borrowed Rodenstock lenses from time to time. They were great. So are the Fuji and Schneider lenses that I currently...

I have to take very strong exception to Bob Salomons statement that there are visible differences between current Fuji, Nikon, Rodenstock,and Schneider lenses. My challenge is this: I'll shoot ...

Thanks all for your help so far. The Glenco deal of course smacks of snake oil, of course, and I have no intention of buying anything from a place that sells stuff in this manner. It would be...

I'm shooting reproduction ratios from 20:1 (min) to infinity. Most of the time outdoors. Color print film (PRN100 mostly.

I've already done quite a few hours of research on this issue. I have exhausted the information that is available on both Quang-Tuan Luong's Large Format Home Page, and graflex.org.

Thanks for...

I'm looking for a small (size, not focal length) lens that will cover 8x10 and a llow for reasonable movements. My preference is for something in the 210-240mm range. I found a reference to a...
