Gentlemen, thank you very much.

It's a standard seven blade Copal 0 shutter. All the blades open fully, but the entire aperture assembly is not centered on the optical axis of the lens.
I recently purchased a used 75mm f4.5 Nikkor lens on a famous auction site. The glass is in fine condition, but the aperture diaphragm, although round enough, is about a millimeter off-center. When...

Not the only Phillips 12x20. I personally have seen at least two of them; the good Dr. Phillips admits to making somewhere between four and six. The last one that sold on e-Bay went to...
