Opps it won't let me edit the title. Should read "Which 210mm LENS should I keep"
Last week a member was looking for a 210mm Rodenstock Sironar-N. While Examining mine I realized I have four 210mm lenses! I think it's time to part with at least two of them, but which ones to keep? I have:
Rodenstock Sironar-n 5.6
Caltar IIN 5.6
Fujinon W 5.6
APO-Computar Symmetrigon 6.3
The glass is very clean in all of them. The shutters all work and sound strong (I just got the iPhone shutter speed app, so Ill check them all before any final decision)
I'm leaning toward the Caltar (I understand its the same lens as the Sironar-N) and the Fuji for purely sentimental reasons. Does anyone know the strengths or weaknesses of any of these?
