Voigtländer Euryscope Series IV No 2 254mm F6
€400.00 EUR
The
Voigtländer & Sohn Extra Rapid Euryscope Series IV No 2. This lens
comes with a focal lenght of 10" (or 245mm) and a starting aperture of
F6. According to the catalouge it should cover fullplate. In reality i would recommend it up to 8x10 formats.
History: A
masterpiece of german lens making from the late 1880ies. The
Voigtländer Extra Rapid Euryscop offers the best of the two worlds, its
well corrected (way more then the petzval design), but also offers a
quite high open aperture of F6 (way faster then the stadard aplanat). The
series number is 42.273, which dates it back to the year 1892.
Condition:
The
condition of the lens is very good. The brass shows only minor wear and was not polished, overall it shows a fine patina. The glass is in an
overall good condition, there are some cleaning marks like with most
authentic lenses from that age. There is
no haze, fungus or seperation there. The lens features a waterhouse slot
and even two stops are included!
The lens comes with a flange and two waterhouse stops.
