He reported that quality falls off quite quickly. For T&S work he now uses another brand of macro lens though he loves the quality of 65 Elmar when used normally. Mr. Lager has pictures of the various visoflex 1 style lenses (200 & 400) mounted on his Hasselblad. I think* that the lenses that mount directly onto the Visoflex 2 and 3 have too short a back focus.
