The Voigtländer & Sohn Portrait d Euryscop Series is as well reknowed for its image quality. Compared to the well known Series IV, the Series 6 features a longer focus, allowing in depth-of-field improvements for group portrait and landscape shots.

The No. 5A lens comes with a focal lenght of 13.5" (or 609mm) and a starting aperture of F7.75. It will cover up to 14x20 formats.

History: A masterpiece of german lens making from the early 1890ies. The Voigtländer Euryscop offers the best of the two worlds, its well corrected (way more then the petzval design), but a slightly faster aperture then standard Aplanats. The series number is 31.809, which dates it back to the year 1886.



Condition: The condition of the lens is worth any collection. The brass shows some character and minimal wear, but also a protective golden laquere which keeps the brass from oxidation. The glass is in an overall very good condition, minimal specs and cleaning marks like with most authentic lenses from that age. There is no haze, fungus or seperation there. The lens features an iris aperture, which still works smoothly.

There weren't many Euryscop Series 6 (or Long Focus Euryscop) made back then and even less remain available today. This is probably the only Long Focus Euryscope that i will ever have, so don't miss your chance of getting one.

The lens comes with a fitting flange.
