Really? The 760 Ronars pop up on the Bay about every month as barrel lenses. Very rarely in a shutter, usually Ilex #5.

Should also mention the 30" Artar f12 as another worthy option. Can also be mounted in a shutter on a sinar board. Sometime seen custom mounted on a Copal 3 but f16 due to smaller opening.

I live in Spain, and when I search on the Bay I only see the articles that are for sale worldwide, and many US sellers don´t want to sell out of the US, so I do not see many lenses that are for sale just in the US.

The Ronars are sold a lot on the German version of the Bay - search there.

Apo-Nikkors are like Apo-Ronars, MTFs go to zero outside the coverage the manufacturer claims.

Dan: Thank you very much for this valuable piece of info.
