For Sale FS: 215mm f4.8 Ilex Caltar Series S Lens in No. 3 Acme Synchro

Really nice classic lens in fully functional Acme Synchro No. 3 shutter. Good for 4x5, 5x7 and some may use on 8x10 (at portrait distance, I suppose). Takes a long throw cable release. Convertible to 14" (356mm) by using the rear cell alone.

Glass is in good shape, some faint cleaning/coating marks on rear surface.
There is a rim dent, but this type of lens does not have threads.

Includes a 4x4" Calumet lens board.

$125 plus postage. Paypal accepted.

Free bump for a very good lens at a good price. I've used mine at infinity on 8x10 (stopped way down and without movements); as it happens I was printing one of those negatives yesterday and it looks fine.

I think the front element can be used alone too, but I'm not sure what the focal length is.

Aw man I do not need this but I want it, you're not taking trades?

damn GAS

take off $10 if you don't need the lens board.
