Has anyone compared and contrasted the two Schneider 120mm lenses?
Now I know that typically macro lenses are not optimized for infinity but I was wondering how good the macro really was for general landscape work, in addition to its macro capabilities. The reason I ask is because I have the Nikon 200/4 micro which is badged as a macro lens but actually is an extremely sharp and capable lens at all subject distances. In fact, it gives the 200/2 a run for it's money at f/4 and upwards. I was wondering if the same is true with the Schneider or whether there is a significant difference for non-macro use.
I'd welcome any feedback from anyone using either of these Schneider lens variants.
Thanks in advance.
