I’ve searched through a lot of threads and across google but if anyone knows of where I can find this information please let me know.
I see a lot of people are using the XVa for ULF and others report amazing image quality in their particular uses (usually B&W, but I know that it is colour corrected). I’m curious about the possibility of making large colour prints (40 inch+, gallery sized) and I’d like to know if anyone has any experience of this? Ideally I’d like to see prints or scans but as that’s probably a long shot so some advice would be appreciated.
My motivations are that I’d like to just carry two lenses, a wide (210 mm) and the XVa. The movements seem amble and saving the bulk and weight where possible would be great as I’m hiking distances with a 8x10. Crazy, yes, I know. Let’s save that for another thread.
I’d like to shoot some portraits wide open and landscapes stopped down (when doing so does the lens perform in a similar way to modern lenses ie. clear, accurate and neutral). Am I barking up the wrong tree here or is this the wonder lens with great results at all three configurations?
Thanks for your help. Let me know if you have any images that I can see.
