Advise and info on Goerz Dagor 12" coatings, IC and focus shift

[Lightbender]

I've had a couple of plate f6.8 dagors.
I found focussing at f6.8 to have a noticeable amount of focus shift. But there was a wide variety of dagors and they were made over a long period of time, so results may vary. If you have some focus shift then just focus all f8 and that should solve the problem.

Thanks again for all the comments.

I think that's what I'll do: focus at f8 and just see how it goes. My camera is stuck in Italian customs on its way back to Gibellini for repair and modification, so I'm still not able to try the lens out regardless...

In the meantime I'll continue dream about using the damn camera and lens. I miss the meditation when in the field!
