I did a quick search and did not find a definitive answer (many references to the print size, 2-10x with 6x being optimal for the 150 and 2-8x (2,5x) for the 360), what is the optimal aperture range on the 150 and 360 Rodagon?
General rule of thumb I was taught and have always followed on a 135 or a 150 is three stops down, or 16 plus or minus a half stop depending on the neg.
Does that sound reasonable?
