The Ektars are well known and their good and bad points are easily accessible on the Net. This one is rare in that the glass does not even have cleaning marks, nothing, they both, front and back, are perfect, the back element has 2-minute bubbles, quite common on high-quality glass and of no optical concern.
The 10-inch has a circle of 254mm ( a bit more after f 22) and Kodak recommends it for 4x5 as well as 5x7.
The shutter was CLA'd by Carol at Flutot 2 years ago and her speeds are included. B & T works well but, after the lens has been unused for a while, will require a couple of quick shots to get them up to par. I attached the usual shutter speeds with the actual speed obtained as a reminder on the field.
It takes 52mm filters
The lensboard with the phalange attached is included so that you do not have to pay to get the 67mm hole made.
The front cap is original the rear one generic.
$345 net to me plus $12 shipping US, International shipping to be determined.
Feel free to ask questions.
