Fourth: Same subject, different perspective. 150mm f/5.6 Topcor with #15 filter, 1/15 sec. at f/22.
This is the simplest lens in my Horseman kit and probably the sharpest. The same Tessar design that's a dog in the 50mm f/2.8 version found on cheap 35mm cameras is very decent stopped down to f/8 on a 6x6 (see that whole series of family portraits I posted recently) and superb at f/22 in 6x9 and larger. The magnificent 14" Kodak Commercial Ektar for 8x10 is another example.
