I don't use them often because 135mm is not one of my favorite lengths. I
like a 90, but then usually jump from there to a 200 Telyt.

I rarely use any lens other than my 400 Telyt wide open. The Hector 135 is
good wide open but not as good as stopped down. I would use it that way if
the situation required.

For what it's worth, I recently used the head of one of my Hectors for a
commercial jewelry shoot and was entirelyy satisfied with the result.
