Hello

I have searched a little on this lens, but most of the info I found on 210/3.5 Xenars were either about even older, uncoated units in barrel, or (possibly) comparable lenses of other brands (Jena Zeiss-tessar 210/3.5 seems to be common). Question is: I recently got a Linhof selected Schneider Xenar 210mm f 3.5 with serial nr. 2721828 (produced in 1951) together with a 4"x5" deal. I have used newer 150mm Xenar (f 5,6 I belive it were) with good result when stopped adequately down, but I am unshure if these fast f 3.5 Xenar lost some of their good behaviour to gain the extra speed?. Thus, I would very much like to have feedback from anyone using this lens, preferably a unit of of comparable vintage. I shoot mostly landscapes & details, and could do with the speed if contrast & resolution is reasonable stopped 2-3 stops down. Would be nice to have responses from others before wasting film testing it.
