Dear List,

I have an opportunity to purchase a Rodenstock Rodagon 300mm lens for 
copy work at 10:1 ratio. There are two models available -- one for 
"vertical" use and another for "horizontal" use.

Could it  be that the "horizontal" version is optimized for 1:1 copying 
(typical of horizontal graphic cameras) whereas the "vertical" is 
optimized for 8:1 for enlarging (as per Rodenstock's literature)?

Thoughts? Comments?
