sharpest lenses above 210mm

[Michael HG]

Hi,

the longest LF digital lenses I found were 180mm / 210mm.

Which longer analog lenses have the performance that fit for the 39mp ?
Did anybody test this out?
Are 100% crops available?

Thanks


Michael

Michael,
      I use the 300mm from Hasselblad on an H2 with the P45+ and the results are stunning.

Yes, I have the 300mm and in deed it is excellent!.
What I did not mentioned: I work with a quadstitch on a Sinar P2 so I need an image circle of 120mm.

Perhaps Nikkor T series (ED glass) which barely covered 4x5.
Focal lengths were 270mm or 360/500mm.

I make this suggestion because the Nikkor 120mm AM-ED I own
holds its own against the latest macro lenses from Rodenstock/Linos & Schneider.

There is a review on the luminous landscape on those Nikon lenses suggesting they are excellent with digital.
I have rented both the  210 Schneider apo symmar and the 210 Rodenstock apo sironar for stitching on a 4x5 with a P45 and had good results. Schneider also makes a 210 apo digitar, but I have never used it.

I have personally tested the Nikor 360mm and can say that it is excellent, at least with a 33MP back down (up?) to f16
