[rollei_list] Re: VoigtlanderApo Lanthar

Marvin,

All of the Apo-Lanthars that I have seen being used were for fashion
illustrations,
where every detail of the garment and the fabric had to be shown.  The films
used were Kodachrome and Ektachrome sheet film

I suppose that the 'de trop' prices being asked now is just because of the
current whims of some LF guru.
