This lens is recommended for use with backs having a maximum image area of 72 x 96mm, capturing a view similar to that of a 16mm lens on a 35mm format camera. This Apo-Sironar digital is delivered in a standard type Copal #0 shutter.rnrnIn many cases, digital photography is superior to conventional photography if the desired end product is a printed image. To achieve this ideal, however, a much higher demand is made upon the image reproduction quality of the lens. This is because of a digital image chip\'s smaller area, which means finer details in a scene are squeezed into a smaller image recording area, as well as their sensitivity to color fringes.
