digital lens... focal lenght...

[archivue]

Hi,

i know that wider is the focal lenght, more important is the difference between digital lens and regular LF one's.
So, here is my question : anybody test side by side something like an apo sironar s 150 vs an apo sironar digital 150 ?

for infos : i've tried myself a regular 120 macro rodenstock against my 90 apo sironar digital and wasn't impressed by the 120 (for macro work ! ).

Sorry, have not tested the lenses you ask about. I can tell you from my experience that generally speaking, lenses designed for MF digital capture are going to be sharper than those designed for LF film.

I have not tried those either, but I can tell you that a 35mm apo-sironar is only about half as sharp as a 35mm Digitar-XL on a P45+ by my eye.

yes, my 35 digitar XL is superb also... but this is wide angle...

Look on luminous landscape. I'm not sure who tested but the color was much better.
