I have tried copy 20x20 gloss photography prints mount on the wall,
with two T32s at 45 deg. and bronica SQ-A. I failed the first time due
to tripod leg reflection. Although I'm not sure how serious the camera
letter reflection will be but on the save side I will cover them with
black tape if I have to do flat copy. For some works, slight
reflection will not be so noticeable or not so important, but the
prints I copy were for Ad production, it is very noticeable even there
is a small reflection.

The 50/2 and 90/2 also has letter on the side not on the front ring, I
guess one of the reason was to prevent reflection.
