Hello Bob. I am surprised how rapidly you answered .
It´s the first time that I entered this helpboard.
You are right. Hardcoating today is different and
much harder. I only didn't liked the word softcoating.
If you know so much about this lens, please answer me
some of my beginnerquestions . This is a great website
for Graflexlovers. I am the latest entry in the helpboard.
Saludos de mexico, Volker.
