Hi
I recently received a 1920-something Schneider 210mm f4.5 Xenar in fairly good shape, but it is not mounted in a shutter and most surely uncoated. Apparently Tessar type lenses can be quite sharp esp. as I will use it for 4x5, but should I bother mounting it in a shutter ? Will the fact that it is uncoated have much effect if used for portraits indoors / not shooting into or close to the sun ?
Cheers
