This'll be cheap because by the time I describe it's problems most of you will be asleep or gone.


Too bad because while it's not a collector piece, it certainly has lots of good images it's capable of making.


The iris is broken. All the blades are there, but when you stop down the hole is oblong, and when you open up, you'll have to "help" some of them get back home. Best to find the 'sweet' spot for your portraits and leave the aperture alone. Wide open or F6 would be good permanent choices. Aperture begins at f4 but the lens is f4.5??


14" is hard to find in the Series II. Made for 10X12 which was rare anyways. Covers 8X10 really nicely. The Fuzz-U-lator is modified to keep right on going until the front falls off. Uber-softness if you so desire.


Hoping for $325 for this. Losing money at that number. :resigned sad face:
