Can someone help me out here please?
Is the Sinaron S equivalent to the Sironar N or Sironar S please (I suspect the answer is the N with a Sinaron SE equivalent to the S, but not at all sure)?
I have been trying a Rodenstock 135mm Sironar N on a 4x5 and got vignetting on my first two shots - presumably because I used the rise too much (more than 28mm apparently).
I have the opportunity to change the lens for either a Sinar 150mm Sironar S or a Schneider Apo Symmar 150mm.
The 150mm instead of a 135mm is fine by me, and not the question, but will I get quite a bit more movement with either of these 150mm lenses, and which is lighter (I backpack) and generally a better option?
The Apo Symmar is the least expensive, with the Sironar S in the middle and the 135 Sironar N was the most expensive. All are similar very good condition so I understand.
There isn't a Sinaron SE available.
Thanks for any advice.
