Based on this thread I'm going to be doing an actual test with film and a Chamonix 45N-1 camera this evening.
I will make 4 photographs. 2 with a 90mm lens and 2 with a 135mm lens.
The camera will be firmly mounted to a Majestic Tripod with 6" bed indoors and focused on a fixed subject 10-15 feet away.
I will make 1 photograph to the best of my ability with a 90mm f/5.6 Super Angulon at f/5.6. I will then remove the fresnel, refocus my camera if need be due to the fresnel being removed, and make another photograph at f/5.6.
I will then repeat this process using a 135mm f/5.6 Symmar-S.
I will light these photographs with flash and use a shutter speed of at least 1/125th of a second to avoid motion blur. I will shoot Ilford FP4+ and develop it in Pyrocat HD using a 2-bath development in a Jobo 3010 with 6 other sheets I need to develop. I will scan the resultant images and post them back to this thread.
Anyone that may have an issue with how this test is conducted and nitpick it later are given the opportunity--RIGHT NOW--to make suggestions on the testing procedure.
