The level of arrogance in this forum of the board is astounding. Many threads now where simple questions have been asked, are replied to with existential answers, or 'the view from the raised pedestal of superiority'. Often all that was required was a relitivley simple answer.
There is a vast amount of experience here, and probably an equally vast number of people considering to dare to dabble their toes in the MF digital world. I think a little more effort in the direction of assistance, rather than the norm (which seems to be ridicule as a rule) would go a long way.
To the O/P. I am unable to give you an answer either, as I have only used a limited number of Schnieder lenses on 4x5, and am yet to make the move to MFD.
Apologies for the hijack of thread, but this attitude finally grated once too often.
