Oops, I have had a hasselblad for a year now, and I have just been printing negatives I made last summer with it. I photographed the same subject (an old farmhouse) with my 150mm lens on my view camera, and the view camera negatives are decidedly inferior to the medium format Hasselblad negatives. I think it might be because the view camera 150mm lens is not very good. I got it when I was a student, about eight years ago, and it was very inexpensive. It is a Sinaron S, and it seemed fine until, oh, I guess today.
I know that price is not always proportional to quality, but...I am thinking of upgrading. What would be a view camera lens that is like the lens on the Hassie? I love that lens. It's the Zeiss C T*. Does Karl Zeiss make lenses for view cameras?
(PS I also like my plastic Holga lens. I'm not a lens snob really!) --shannon ============================================================================================================= To unsubscribe from this list, go to www.freelists.org and logon to your account (the same e-mail address and password you set-up when you subscribed,) and unsubscribe from there.
