Had searched for the comments of G-Claron WA 270mm lens. How poor is the performation of this lens to shoot landscape photo?

On what format?

The consensus seems to be that it is larger and has less coverage than the 270mm f:9 G-Claron, doesn't use regular filters, and will cost about $700 more to get it into a shutter, so why bother? Get a 270mm G-Claron in a Copal 1 and be done with it.
