Taylor Taylor & Hobson Aviar 510mm F4.5 ULF

€950.00 EUR

Shipping costs will be calculated at checkout.

This is a very massive lens made by a wellknown known british maker: Taylor Taylor & Hobson. This specimen features a focal lenght of 510mm (or 20") which is impressive on its own, but the most interesting spec is that it also offers a max. aperture of F4.5!


This is the largest Aviar lens i had in the shop so far. With its 510mm focal lenght it will work nicely for ULF portraits, the F4.5 open aperture will give you fantastic DOF on your groundglass!

I would reocmmend this lens for 11x14 and up to 14x17 portrait. Maybe even larger, but i didnt test that.


The condition of the lens is quite good. The metall comes in a nice shape, showing  minor wear to the black paint. The glass is mostly in a good condition also, i cant there are quite some air bubbles and also cleaning marks but overall it is clear. The lens features a working iris aperture which is moving from F4.5 up to F12.


The lens comes with a fitting flange.
