50mm F4 SMCT as an enlarging lens?
Anyone ever tried using the 50mm F4 SMCT as an enlarging lens? I've seen 39mm to 42mm adapting rings which would allow the fitting, but curious if its worth the effort??

I haven't tried that particular lens, but a friend tried to use her Voightlander lens and got soft corners. With used Nikkors so cheap and common (and good) I can't see any benefit. tv - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.

What don't you like about it? (Besides the cheap construction.) I like my Schneiders and Rodenstocks better, but think the difference is minimal. tv - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
