Commercial Ektar vs Dagor

[goamules]

Ha! I remember that post, which was a case study in early Internet trolling, if I recall.

Yeah, that was very entertaining to say the least.
I have 4 Dagors, all later and coated, some with gold and some not and I really like them all. Contrast is just exactly what I want from a lens. They may not compare to modern Plasmat lenses when it comes to critical sharpness but used with large negatives they are so smooth.

AHh Dan, half right as always.



You've clearly read my countless descriptions over the years but lack comprehension, my main complaint with Carlos is the build quality NOT the design. I don't know how many times I have to say that for it to sink in. I'll check back in six months or so to see if your head is any better.
