    I used a 135mm Componon S on my 4X5 in a Copal 0 shutter for a LONG time. Later on a nice little Fuji 125 came along and I have loved it, but there was no reason I ever found not to use the Componon as a taking lens. I always stopped down to at least f16.

    Put a Packard back behind that Componon and wean yourself from shutters. You'll ultimately have a lot more fun.
