i was just reading my Linhof Practice and they mention the Xenotar 150/2.8
lens. it sounds fairly fascinating, according to my math, on a 4x5, it has
close to the depth of field of a noctilux in 35mm, about +/- 1 inch at 5 feet.
there's a 135/3.5 also, which is closer to the DOF of a 50 summilux.
i was thinking it could be an interesting lens on a super technika IV
with rangefinder. does anyone have comments on the lens or its
depth of field?
thanks!
