I thought there was a thread somewhere about 180mm lenses, perhaps it was Lula, at any rate I couldn't find it. But I was wondering how the 80mm image circle of the HR-S would fare with the IQ4 150.
So I was out strolling the courtyard behind our office and someone left a 24 patch color checker laying there, and I thought - opportunity! So I grabbed the requisite items and did it up. Bottom line - I'm, I don't know, kind of shocked. Jpgs are attached, no color cast, no sign of the physical edge of the lens. This was IQ4 150 on Cambo WRS 1600 with the 180 HR-S in Cambo Custom mount (long helical with short barrel). No nothing bad. And sharp everywhere I had it focused regardless of the 40mm movement. You have to search for the focus point a bit, because the length of the lens and the proximity to the subject (pretty close).
PM me if anyone wants raw files. For IQ4 150 users wanting a longer lens with tons of shift, I see no reason to not consider this lens:
