Hello to all,
I am starting to build my 4x5 equipment. I am a newbie to large format and would like to ask your advice on this problem I am having.
I bought a Sinar Sinaron SE F5.6 150mm. The description says that the glass is in "excellent condition".
However, when I do the "Flashlight Test" I can see very small reflections (see pictures) in one of the front elements that look crystal-like. The seller tells me that this has "no effect on the quality of the pictures in anyway".
I have never seen this defect before and have no experience to judge if this is a serious problem that will affect the quality of my pictures.
Does anyone have experience with this and can tell me what the issue is? Thanks a lot!
Luis
