Hello All:

I've got 3 enlarger lens:

1. Rodenstock Rogonar 1:2.8 50mm
2. Meopta Anaret S
3. Leitz Wetzlar Focotar 1:4.5 50mm

Wich one is best?

Do you think I should get a better lens?

(I work with 2 enlargers: leitz focomat 1c, and meopta axomat 5)

Thanks a lot!

Ariel.

since you have them, use them and determine for yourself.

Without a test, only can guess, Leitz?

If they are clean and clear then they all should be just fine, but you might be surprised by the Anaret-S.
