Just recently purchased this camera combination..I am new to view cameras, but have had experience with Mamiya super 23..i used as a view camera . But can see i have a lot to learn with this new camera
Can anyone coment on the lens..I havent taken any photos with it yet..(just got it yesterday)
Everything looks very minty and i am excited to try my hand.

I would expect this to be a modern lens equal or better than any 135mm lens that originally came on a Super G. It's probably at it's sharpest around f11-16 and ill knock your socks off. It will have a larger image circle and therefor could handle more movements than say a 135mm Ektar, but obviously not as as fast.
