Hasselblad picture copying.

[Guest]

I have some European oil paintings from my Grandfather and a Churchill item that I want to make black and white and colour copies of. I used my SWC/M a few years ago and got excellent results. Since then I recently got a linear mirror unit for my system.
So I am wondering would any of these do a better job...
I have a 135 with bellows
50 FLE
80
150
So I was wondering how the 135 and bellows and the 50 FLE would perform. I doubt the 80 or 150 would be suitable
Has anyone got experience in this question. One issue is when the lens is too close to the item being photographed lighting is an issue, I use two quality monolights.

Don't know specifically which lens would be best for that, but for lighting, a good quality macro ringlight/flash will do a good job. They make them in LED versions now too, so you can keep it on while making adjustments.

I would expect the 135 and bellows to be your best for this purpose. The 120 Makro-Planar should do a very good job also. I have the 120, but have not used the 135.

I suggested to you to try the 135 and Bellows in your other thread. 🙂 I have that equipment too, I think the 135mm T* Planar-S is one of the best lenses in the line.

Try it out and see.
