Color Skopar coverage

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Large format photography : One Thread

I saw a Color Skopar on e-bay .the photo shows/105 but thats all for focal length;no mm or cm.The ad says itis for 4x5.I believe the Skopar is a Tessar formula,hence I doubt it covers 4x5.I asked the seller but got no reply.

Jim,

It covers 6x9, maybe 6x12, at infinity. Cheers,

Jim, Geoffrey is right. It is the fast version, so normal Tessar- types 1:4,5 should perform better and should be much cheaper. Look for better chances! Thomas
