Can anyone tell me what printing lenses are used on later 16/35/70 optical printers.

I know Kodak Ektar's were commonly used on older machines, but what's the modern equivalents ?

 

Cheers all,

John S :rolleyes:

Printing-Nikkor lenses were very popular.

The Printing_Nikkors are amazingly sharp much better than the Kodak Ekator's
