History: A quite interesting lens made in Ligny which is rarily seen on the market today. The Objectif Anachromatique (d'Artiste) layout features two meniscus lenses opposite of eachother. The lens was designed by Pulligny & Puyo and offers a pictorealistic image with some nice diffusion to it. It also features a rack&pinion to increase the DOF of the final image by increasing and decreasing the distance between the two optical cells. All in all its a fascinating lens, especially for photographers who like the pictorealistic style.
Condition:
The lens comes in an overall good
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. The
rack & pinion is there but not really working. The lens features a waterhouse slot, though no stops are included. The
glass is in good condition, only minimal cleaning marks here and there.
It
has a
focal lenght of 310mm at a speed of around F5. It will work best for 5x7 and maybe even larger formats up to 8x10.
Lens comes with a flange.
