    True. If I can reach half the potential of my beat-up Fujinon 150mm f/6.3, I will be very happy.

    I use a congo 400mm for landscapes on a Wisner 4 x 5 usually at f 22 or f 32 and the results are very good.

    Bravo!
    This expression is true!

    I plan to buy a lens Congo F=400mm f/8 for $285.
    Thanks for the good feedback on this lens!
