For Sale FS: Goerz Gold Rim Dagor 8 1/4" f6.8 (ie 210mm)

[Jon Shiu]

C.P. Goerz Am. Optical Co. Dagor 8 1/4 In. F:6.8 No. 803434

Beautiful lens for 4x5, 5x7, or 8x10 when stopped down.

Glass is in great shape w/o scratches or marks. I do see bubbles in the black edge coating on the front group, sometimes called "Schneideritis".

Shutter is an Ilex Acme No. 3. It is in very good shape and runs well. I do note that B sometime hangs up so CLA is advised. T works fine. Takes a cable release with a medium throw to operate. Flange included and non-original front cap.

$850 plus postage & insurance. Please let me know if any questions.

Here are some less distorted pictures. There are a few reflections in the upper left of the lens:

Now $550.

On further thought, the loss of edge blackness in the front group is called edge separation. But it is just on the very edge and doesn't go inward into the glass.
