Hello everyone,
I'm shooting my Sinar since 1 week and have already burned through 20 sheets of TriX. All portraits.
And that's all the experience I have with large format. Please excuse my very basic questions!
What I notice is that the Sinaron 150mm that came with the camera is extremely sharp and contrasty.
I like to compare it to my RZ67 110mm 2.8 lens. Have been shooting 120 film for the last 2 years so that's what I can relate to best.
I love the 110mm with colour film but I can't get pleasing tones on black and white film with it.
So I would love to get a lens for the Sinar that gives me a similar look like my Rolleiflex + Rolleinar.
Shallow DOF, sharp enough in the centre and creamy tonality.
Something like this:

How can I get that on my Sinar F2?
I understand I need to get a lens, a shutter and a board.
How do I start?
