Clean it or Leave it?

It's been nearly a year, I have finally cleaned the lens and tried it out as it was meant to be used, on 5x7 Tri-X.



Here are the details, actual pixels from 1200dpi scan (might have resized to display on forum), center and edge:



I shot the same scene at f32 and f45, this is the f32 version which seems a little sharper. I had to crop out the front rail of my camera.

Glad you cleaned it. I see a healthy future for this lens!
