I am using a 108 raptar on my 4x5 crown graphic. When using a 23 roll film holder, what aperture setting would give me the sharpest image on the 120 film ??

Thanks,

I don't own the lens, (wish I did), but you may look here as a starting point. Then judge for youself. My 90mm Raptar gets better towards the edges all the way to f/32, but is better in the center at f/22.
