For Sale 11" f7 No Name (French, pretty sure) Petzval

[jimgalli]

Here is a highly unusual little petzval. It's an odd size, seldom seen. First I've ever seen in any case. 11" f7!

That means if you have a full plate camera with a teeny tiny lens board, THIS WILL FIT!

It also means it's going to be fairly well behaved. It may or may not swirl on full plate. If you're into wierdness, you can reverse the #3 element in seconds on this one, and then it will misbehave wildly.

If it doesn't get snapped up pretty quickly at my gift of a price, perhaps I'll do just that tomorrow. I'll want $289 + $11 shipping in USA. Wow, seems like shipping costs to overseas have doubled in recent months. Cost me $50 to send a box to England last week. I was figuring $26!!

Here are some images made with this lens yesterday

Old glamorpuss '39 Ford pickup. Supposed to be cleaning the garage yesterday and my wife accused me of playing. I explained to her that I've spoiled you guys and you simply won't buy anything from me until I've posted pictures made with it!

This lens was a pleasure on the 6½ X 8½! Covered with movements.
