Hi !
I'm offered a 210 mm lens, it is a Komura, opens up to F/6.3 and is on a
Copal 1 shutter The ring is labelled "commercial".
The lens is multi coated, and price quite low.
Any clue ?
TIA !

Have one for my 5x7 and it works dandy. As deniz said it is a sleeper. If cheap get it.

I got one in a very nice condition off an auction site for $150. It's sharp, but I do only contacts. Good luck!

I've heard great things about these little Komura Commercials and have been trying to find a 300mm version which comes in a copal 1, figuring I can find it cheaper than the Nikon M or Fuji C.
