For Sale FS: Nice Beck's 12" f/8 Symmetrical RR for 8x10

[c.d.ewen]

Here's yet another lens that I've never gotten around to using. Beck's was an English lens manufacturer on what I'd call the second tier - not as famous as Dallmeyer or Cooke, but still quite respectable. Bet you've never tried one. Note the distinctive front.

The lens is in very nice condition - just a cleaning whisp here or there. Nothing to be concerned about. The iris turns very easily. There is a mounting flange present, and it is currently mounted on a 4x4 Masonite lensboard.

$100 + shipping (say, $6 for USPS Priority Mail). Paypal OK.

I've used a shorter version of this lens and it is a pretty typical RR type lens. Beck did make more expensive, higher quality symmetricals with Jena glass according to the VM but this version takes fine photos, in my experience.
