Re: any users around of longer Ernemann Ernostar lenses?
Hello Xatnoc! I would second Ian's comment & say - it would be great to see the images taken with the lens.
I've seen few of them taken by a "virtual friend" and co-member here on his Flickr account... he has 2 of them: 125mm and 165mm if I remember right... and all the images he posted looked stunning.
On the other hand I would love to know a bit more about Ernostars that are longer than 18cm!

I own and use the 165mm f1.8 and it is indeed a stunning performer and equal it's reputation. I ultimately mounted it on a 4x5 speed graphic and rangefinder coupled it although I only use it via gg focusing because of the shallow depth of field near wide open. I tried valiantly to mount it n a Graflex SLR, but it was too big for the 3x4 and to short (hit the mirror) for 4x5.

Glad to hear that there is one more happy user of Ernostars.
I wish I could try faster version than my 180mm is, like your 165mm 1.8!
Do you have any examples of the shots shot with it to share Jkay777?

Few of them should be on my Flickr too. (On a holiday in HongKong so unable to search them now :( Sorry)
Re: any users around of longer Ernemann Ernostar lenses?
4x5 Kodak 160 film shot wide open.

Thanks for the images, links, and info. Anyone interested in selling their copy? :)
