My large format journey began with a Schneider 210mm lens and a Calumet 4×5. I still rely on Schneider lenses today for both studio and ALPA technical camera work.
Rodenstock lenses offer top-tier performance. I use the 65mm Grandagon-N with center filter and the 210mm Sironar-N DB for studio and large format work.
The lens I most regret parting with is the Cooke PS945 soft-focus portrait lens. I let it go when I transitioned from 4×5 portraits to medium-format digital, primarily with ALPA cameras and lenses. I needed the money, so I sold it for the same $3,500 I had originally paid.
