Being on Kerry's site for a bit, for the first time I learned that the Nikon 90mm SW f8 lens has the same image circle as my Schneider S.A. 90mm f5.6, which is 235mm! Plus, I seem to recall that both are 8 element lenses.
Any reason why I shouldn't swap it out? I'd be interested in people's perspective who've used the Nikkor f8 lens.
I also have the S.A. 121mm f8, and from using that lens, the loss of an f-stop isn't a problem.
Of course, the f4.5 Nikon S.W. would be even better, and would have same image circle at f16 instead of f22. But, I like the idea of cutting back on weight.
