[net.rec.photo] Enlarging Lenses

eric@rtech.UUCP (Eric Lundblad) (11/08/85)

	I am in the market for an enlarging lens that is
some where in the 90mm - 100mm range. My main
consideration is to get one that will produce the sharpest
possible images, even if this means I have to given something
else up (like money, fewer apertures, etc). Does anyone out
there in netland have this sort of information? Darkroom
Photography magazine has had some articals about this in the
past ("The best enlarging lenses in the world", Vol. V No. 5/
1983, and "How to choose an enlarging lens", Vol. II No. 1/
1980), but I can't find a way to get a hold to these issues.
The Rodenstock 90mm APO-Rodagon sounds good, but I have found
no way to compare it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

	Thanks
