tim_kimbler Posted January 12, 1999 Share Posted January 12, 1999 I bought an enlarger lens used. It has a small scratch on the edge of the rear glass. The scratch is so light, I did not even notice it when buying the lens. It is only noticeable when checked under strong light with close inspection. Will this scratch show up on the prints?

alan_gibson Posted January 12, 1999 Share Posted January 12, 1999 If it is near the edge, when you close down to a working aperture, is that part of the lens even used? <p> Even if it is, a small scratch would have a greater effect on resale value than picture quality. The only effect would be a very slight 'smearing' of light, probably undetectable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c_matter1 Posted January 13, 1999 Share Posted January 13, 1999 If you stop way down..you MAY begin to notice it..but probably not. Try it and see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
