I recently picked up a pretty clean version of what is labeled as a ‘PETRI 35 F2 Color Corrected Super’ that was made in 1957-58.
Would anyone know how many elements this Kuribayashi Petri Orikkor 45 f2 lens has for this Petri 35?
Research turned up a decent amount info about the Petri 35 f1.9 and f2.8 rangefinders of the same type, but hardly anything at all about the f2 lens. The 2.8 is a Tessar-type lens with four elements, and the 1.9 has six elements. I would assume that the f2 lens has six elements like the 1.9, but couldn’t find any specific info. In addition, the m42 Orikkor 50mm f2 lens has six elements.
