Hi Mike Fuji Superia ISO 100 color negative film was used and there is simply nothing exposed on the negative = blank, empty when I used soft focus at F2.8 or F4. The beginning and rest of the roll is fine since I did not use the soft focus ring there. Something must be wrong with that lens. greetings Markus
