Hello,
I have Cambo Ultima 23D/35, which I used with DSLR (and I'll add a digital back in the next year) and with two lenses: Schneider 80 Apo-digitar and Nikon 120/5.6 AM-ED.
I want to add another super wide angle lens. I read a few thread here but still didn't find a lens which will be not too expensive, but still good enough for digital photography ( I mostly do Jewelry [mostly expernsive jewelry] + products professional photograpy).
I thought about the Schneider 28mm/2.8 apo-digitar (with FFD round 70mm), but it has too small IC (no T&S with digital backs) and it discontinued and it very expensive (too much for me).
I made an Excel file with all digital lenses of Rodenstock and Schneider to see it all summarize:
Manufacturer | Lens Length [mm] | Aperture | Series | Image Circle [mm] | FFD [mm] | Filter size [mm] | Price [$]
Rodenstock HR Digaron-S 4.5 / 28mm 28 4.5 HR Digaron-S 70 53.1 72 7529
Rodenstock Apo-Sironar digital 4.5 / 35mm 35 4.5 Apo-Sironar digital 105 43.2 67 2640
Rodenstock HR Digaron-S 4.0 / 35mm 35 4 HR Digaron-S 70 53.5 67 5062
Rodenstock HR Digaron-W 4.0 / 40mm 40 4 HR Digaron-W 90 69.5 67 5255
Schneider Apo-Digitar 5.6 / 43mm XL 43 5.6 Apo-Digitar 115 48.9 55 2994
Rodenstock Apo-Sironar digital 4.5 / 45mm 45 4.5 Apo-Sironar digital 125 55.5 58 2718
Schneider Apo-Digitar 5.6 / 47mm XL 47 5.6 Apo-Digitar 113 52.3 52 2640
The main issue that I have is that most of those lenses are very rare and there isn't any reviews.
I don't want to buy a lens without to know if it good for my needs.
I would like to get an advice from guys who have experience with one of more of these lenses.
Sincerely,
Tsur.
