I've finally scratched together enough coin to buy a SSXL 150! (http://www.shinyphotos.com/2006/10/17/schneider-150mm-super-symmar-lens-object-of-desire/) I'm really thrilled to get it and doubly so that it's coming from a member of the board. Anyway... I just wanted to gloat a bit. Show me your shots with it!
I'll be using the lens on a Calumet 8x10 monster to make whole-plate daguerreotypes and I'll probably make some 4x9 or 4x10 depending on what size of plate I can cram in to the holder! WAHOO!

Duckarrowtypes, Congrats!
I just got one as well. My first pictures were merely with a 6x12 Rollfilm adapter to my 8x10 camera, but I was excited to see how sharp the lens is. Are you getting a center filter?
Asher
BTW, what do friends call you besides duckarrowtypes?

Friends call me Jon.
Do you have any of your panoramic shots online?

Hi Jon,
Just saw you post. I'll have to do some scanning!
