Hi!
Just some quick test shots with these two great Rodenstock enlarger lenses mount on bellows.
wide open (f/9 Rolling Eyes ) with almost no PP, first one with the 150mm and the other one's with the 240mm...:

Quite difficult to focuss with DSL-R on bellows because the lenses are quite slow so Live view is a great help!
Both lenses are amazing sharp wide open so don't need to stop down and perfect to use for proxi/macro shots...

Thanks for looking Smile

Not sure what made you believe that, but these two (great) lenses were NEVER intended as enlarger lenses, rather than being designed as repro lenses.

Great shots that certainly shows some of their inherent capabilities. That tiny little Apo Ronar 15mm is a special fav lens of mine and #1 is a wonderful example for that - Congrats!

have you check if they are APO with CA
to reach infinity with the 240, how far do you set the bellow ?

Thanks Klaus for your com!
Well, I must admit as a newbie I am, that I have no idea about the difference between Enlarger and Repro lenses, shame on mee Embarassed ....but luckily is Dr Klaus here to raise a little bit my photographic knowledge Very Happy .....
Mine lenses are far to be in the same state as yours (and looks different BTW!) and I don't have any box or caps.....but I got it for almost free with some other Enlarger (or repro Very Happy ) lenses so I'm very happy with it Very Happy !

Thanks also Poilu! With my short experience with this lens, it seems to be completly CA free but I did not have time yet to realy check that at 100%! And I will say about 20cm to reach infinity....
