So how about a Super Symmar XL 180mm with an image circle near 400mm in a Copal 1 shutter? I'd want it smaller than the 210XL, nearer the 150XL if possible and if that meant f8 thats OK. Oh yeah, no bigger than 95 on the front end.
It seems Schneider can make the 550 and 1100 "Fine Art " lenses for what must be a very small market. I'd think there are enough 8x10 shooters who would buy a great 180. 90mm is very popular on 4x5 so it seems a 180 for 8x10s would be a good seller.
And I wouldn't mind if it was made by Rodenstock for that matter. Somebody just make one!
Anyone else like this idea?
