Great results, especially the Osteospermum (African Daisy) in #1

Pretty good for an enlarger lens. A bit long focal length to be really practical, but
gives you plenty of working distance for sure.

Thanks all for your comments...yes this lens is quite amazing regarding sharpness and colour rendering and it seems to be as good for macro/close-up as for infinity/landscape, quite strange for an enlarger lens but actually, I have no idea if this lens was designed for enlarging or for large format camera Confused !!!!....
