Condition: The lens comes in a collectors condition. The brass parts come unpolished and offer a nice patina, there is minmal wear here and there but its still a beauty to look upon. Three of the glass elements come with bayonet style casings and are in good overall condition, i cant even spot cleaning marks here. The two menisci elements are used for the portrait setup, while for the landscape setup you would use the planoconvex and the planoconcave elements. The planoconvex element without casing comes with quite some cleaning marks to it, as far as i understand this one was used for the landscape setting and can be swapped with the foremost meniscus lens in the front cell. The lens comes with a rack & pinion mechanism which is complete and working smoothly.

It will work best for 8x10 and maybe even larger formats (i think up to 11x14).


Lens comes with a flange.
