Calling all Bronica Lens Experts

[ComicDom1]

I am looking at the different Bronica 150mm lenses for the ETRsi body. From what I understand, there are 3 versions. One of them is the MC which has a metal focus ring but its an older design. The newer one is the PE version which has a plastic focus ring. I think there is one in the middle named the E series but I cannot remember what the difference is.

They are available in F 4.0 and F 3.5.

I would like to know from those how have knowledge of these lenses, what version is the better one? Is the PE lens better than the MC version? Is there noticeable difference between the 3.5 and 4.0 version?

Thanks in advance,

Jason

Wow, I think I found my answers. The 3.5 MC version gives similar results in quality to the PE Version. The original F4 150mm lens should be avoided.
