Two for one, Companion S 100mm enlarging lens, plus: Hoya Super EL135

Description

For sale is the the venerable Schneider Compnon - S 100mm enlarging lens with illuminated f-stops.  It has a well deserved reputation and is well known.  This one comes with its retaining ring and a Schneider Cap which seems to be absent from most sale items.  What is really special about this auction is that it includes a bonus enlarging lens: the Hoya Super EL 135mm.  The Hoya does not come with it's own retaining ring (39mm?) but matches that of the 100mm Schneider.  They have been partners through the years for that.  I want to say, you may be surprised by which of these two lenses you will like the best when printing.  Hoya never got its due for the very high quality of lenses they made.  They are especially "smooth" which is to say the Modulation Transfer Function is gentle and linear.  They remind me of Fujinon lenses for that aspect.  Consider it free, bid for only the Companion S value and get a second perfect lens for free.
