'Ross - London - 14165'

Condition: The brass looks really good here, there is only minor wear and signs of use. The rack & pinion is complete, and still working although a bit jumpy at times. It comes with a waterhouse, and one stop is even included. The glass looks clean and shows no haze or fungus, there are some cleaning marks here and there and a feint scratch mark on the front element, but that wont affect the image quality of this beauty.

The lens has a focal lenght of 200mm and it will cover 4x5 and 5x7 with distinct petzval characteristic on the ground glass. The starting aperture of F3 will give you a fantastic shallow DOF and a short exposure time, to be able to do fantastic portrait shots.


Lens comes with a fitting flange and one waterhouse stop.
