Hi everybody!
I have a very straigth question: If you put a Schneider super angulon 90 5.6 XL and a Schneider apo symmar L 180 5.6 on a:
-Fotoman 617 Mk2L
-Gaoersi 617 shift
and you make a print of 2x6 meters...
And now I use a Linhof Technorama with its lenses and make the same prints...
DO YOU SEE A DIFFERENCE?
What I am asking basically is: Is the price difference reflected in the quality of the results, i mean, the prints?? Because, and here is where I might be displaying publically my stupidity, I understand that if film flatness is the same, the glass is the same and the lens is correctly focused...the result should be the same? Of course, I put aside other considerations, like ease to be used, durability or prestige linked to special brands...
I am a simple guy, and I can perfectly live with less bells and whistles, and having more difficulties for loading the film or doing some operations does not scare me...but in terms of final quality of the prints, I am not ready to make any compromises. I consider myself (my wife agrees
a freak of sharp, contrasty and nice results...perhaps my engineering background has deformed me so!
What do you think?
I deeply appreciate in advance your comments. It is really wonderful to have people like you helping those like me still asking stupid questions
Kind regards from Switzerland,
Rafael
