Re: Last of the great Camera's!
is that a driveshaft in the 3rd picture? ;-)
Re: Last of the great Camera's!
At the risk of relieving who knows what, what is it? :confused:
Re: Last of the great Camera's!
Any idea what the focal length is and what camera that monster in #3 fits?

Dont know about the lense. it was some random lens in a box! :) a lot of camera's and not a clue as to what he had :)
Re: Last of the great Camera's!
That driveshaft in pic #3 is an Astragon telephoto probably for 35mm or 6X6 format.
Maybe 500 to 800 mm range. I'm guessing f/5 or so aperture.

Million,
That first one looks like an Calumet 8 x 10 with some sort of Schnieder lens. Can you post any other identfiers from the lens?
Re: Last of the great Camera's!
Looks like the "driveshaft" says Birns and Sawyers on it , which is associated with the Hollywood film industry ...?

It looks like a Schneider Super-Angulon 165mm in a Compur #1 shutter.
