especially i want to make dupes, i just bought a beseler with the possibility to make dupes up to 4x5". so for 6x7 / 6x9 / 6x12 and 4x5 it would be interesting to use my technikardan. what lense to buy and which shutter works together with it......? thanks for helping
120mm Apo Rodagon D in shutter.
I like the 120 Nikkor-AM ED. There is one for sale at Midwest Photo Exchange for $699. Call Jim at 614-261-1264. Website Mpex.com He is very helpful.
For dupes it's important to have a flat field lens. Bob will probably tell us th at there is not such thing as a flat field lens and I won't question his knowledge, but the Apo-Rodagon and any good repro or enlargement lens optimized for 1:1 is probably better than a lens not optimized for flat objects reproduction.
The Apo Rodagon D series is a lens corrected for duplicating flat originals (film) to film or CCD
how much extension needs such a 240mm lense to make 1:1. will be too much for a technikardan.....isnt it? it makes around 400mm max.
how will be my apo-symmar 150mm work to this lenses in comparation? is there much difference in sharpness? also i own a sironar150 and a symmar210 mm in this range.....
If the newer Symmars are as symmetrical as the old Symmar (no letters), they should be quite decent.
I think I would try a Zeiss Planar 135mm first, but that's just because I happen to have one
A Sinar/Rodenstok Macro-Sinaron SE 5.6/180 would be ideal.
That is the Apo Macro Sironar 180mm
"Sinar/Rodenstok Macro-Sinaron SE 5.6/180"
