Here you see a quite impressive lens made by the german company Emil Busch. This specimen features the well known Doppel Anastigmat layout, which also was marketed by Goerz under the name 'Dagor'. The focal lenght is 450mm (or 17") at a max. aperture of F7.7, thats nearly the same stats as the No.8 Goerz Dagor. The image circle of this beast is gigantic and will work for ULF formats.

The Doppelanastigmat is a very well corrected and super sharp lens design, which was highly praised in the early days of photography.

The condition of the lens is very good. The brass is authentic and shows some wear here and there, but also a fantastic and authentic patina. The glass is in a good condition, only minimal cleaning marks here. There is no haze and no fungus. The aperture is complete and moving freely.


The lens comes with a fitting flange.
