iris added to Jim Galli's 5x7 Gundlach Symmetrical

Murray@uptowngallery · Nov 13, 2007

Here's a post I made at the other camera street corner I loiter at.

I took the shutterless, irisless 5x7 Gundlach Symmetrical I got from Jim Galli & found an easy iris solution...still scheming on a shutter.

Nice work, Murray. Now show us what you did with this reinvented lens!

Oh, you want me to actually shoot with it?

Still trying to 'standardize' the front standard on the target camera. Unfortunately it uses the front half of a Polaroid 150 or 95B (I forget) so the bellows space is tight.

Unless it's purely a decorative lens!

Nah, it should work, once I figure out a mounting method on the only 5x7 'camera' I have.

Maybe by the end of the year, wishful thinking anyway.
