Christmas is over, and I need to re-capitalize the Model A project. I have several lenses I've harvested from the Lens Bunker for that purpose.
It takes more than 4 photos to get the gist of what's going on here, so 2 posts. This is 1/2 of a 150mm f4.5 Eidoscop. You say, but that's bad. But Eidoscop is convertible. So you say, well, that's good, and indeed it is.
You couldn't afford this if it were complete, nor would I offer it, so double good.
The half that's left becomes a 275mm f8 soft focus lens. It has all of the qualities of the complete lens except the speed. It retains the gorgeous sharp-ish core with glowing highlights surround.
Then to further confuse things, someone has long long ago added a #1 Compur dial set shutter which makes it oh so usable. Looks funky, actually works superbly. I'll ask only $265 for this + shipping. See photos below.
