today at a camera swap meet I purchased a 90mm f8 Fujinon SW for the grand sum of $150 which I thought was a good deal. The shutter speeds seemed reasonable and the glass was clean. Didn't notice till I got home and examined it in better light that on the front element about half to 2/3 of the anti-reflective coating seems to have been rubbed off (worn off). So my question is how much of an impact might this have on my shots. I shoot 4x5 and only B&W.
I am aware that in the earlier days lenses were uncoated, however here I am dealing with a situation where the lens seems to be "half coated"
thanks for your feedback
