Duplouich Lucidior 220mm F3.8 Soft Focus
€950.00
Sold Out
History: A super rare and mystirious lens, the Duplouich Anastigmat Dissymmetrique Lucidio offers a very unique image quality. It is a four elements layout which offers a sharp but slightly pictorial image when shot wide open, and gets tack sharp when stopped down. It is best compared with a Universal Heliars 'glow' around the edges, when its the soft focus is on. I did test it on the groundglass and i find the results very intruiging.
With its 75° imaging angle and a razor sharp DOF it can be used for stunning portraiture work on 5x7 and up to 8x10 formats.
Here is some info about the lens that can be found on the net:

Condition:
The brass looks very good here, there is not much wear. It is
coated with a dark golden laquere which still
protects the brass beneath. Lens comes with a working iris aperture,
which moves smoothly from F3.8 to F32. The glass is a good condition
also, showing only cleaning marks and specs, without any haze or
fungus.
The lens comes with the original flange and leather lenscap!
