Up till now I've bought my Schneider lenses new from a dealer:
90,120,210 for 4x5
210 XL for 8x10
I want to buy a 480mm (for 8x10) but I'm wondering if there are actual improvements in the optics vs lenses from the early 1990's. I'm not looking for 'massive improvements' but if anything has been done to add even that 'last little bit' of optical performance then its worth it, if they just use different materials or its to get a warranty then its not.
I know with my Canon lenses that over time they improve the optics/mechanics even if they don't release a new version but those lenses are obviously more complicated.
I'll be shooting with the intent to do high resolution scanning and huge prints, I want _detail_.
Thanks.
