  3. Re: Schneider 58mm XL with diaphragm slightly closed at max aperture

    Both my 110XL and 80XL allow for the aperture selector to go beyond the aperture scale, however the aperture blades are not visible from the front element of the lens when set to the maximum aperture...
  4. Schneider 58mm XL with diaphragm slightly closed at max aperture

    Yesterday I received an Ex+ copy in Copal 0 shutter from KEH. The aperture scale goes from f/5.6 to f/32, but I can move the aperture selector further left or right of the scale. What surprised me is...
  5. Re: Schneider Symmar - S 150mm vs Rodenstock Apo-Sironar-N 150mm

    Re: Hello from Boston!

    Re: Reciprocity Timer 1.0

    What a great app! I used to carry a cheat sheet with reciprocity tables and used a calculator to figure out bellows extensions and filter factors. Not anymore! Now what I need are some good gloves...

    I've been searching all over the Internet for the size of the rear lens cap of a Fujinon A 180mm and the only measurement I found is in B&H's website, but it seems wrong (57mm). Do any of you know?

    I started shooting APS-C digital, then tried 35mm film with a Nikon F6, and was amazed by the image quality of slides on a light table. I continued to MF with a Mamiya 6mf, and the joy of seeing...
