Having impulsively bought a Mamiya C330 plus lenses I now need an enlarger lens.
Question is would there be a visible difference at 7 times enlargement between a Nikon75mm 4 element f4 lens and a Nikon 80mm 6 element f5.6 lens if used at optimum f number? This would be using FP4+ developed inID11 1+1 using a Meopta colour head and Ilford MG RC paper. I should add that I can discern a very slight difference between my Nikon 50mm 4 and 6 element lenses at 12 times enlargement but with these lenses the 6 element lens is faster than the 4 element.
And Would I be right to assume no particular quality difference between Nikon, Meopta and Companon s 6 element lenses?
Cheers
