    8x10 lenses, 150-165mm

    Living in a tent isn't all that difficult to get used to, Mark. And, after a while, one developes a taste for squirrel and field mouse stew. ;-)

    8x10 lenses, 150-165mm

    Since there has been a lot of talk about the Cooke, I thought I'ld throw in my two cents worth. I don't have the Series VIIB, but I do have the 6" Series VIIA Primoplane ( got it on E-bay a little over a year ago for about $30). Vademecum indicates this lens was made for 8 x 10. However, I have not really tested it out much.

    This is a very small lens at only about 1 1/2" in diameter and is in barrel. I've mounted it to a board with a Packard shutter (and I get a lot of movement on my 5 x 7), but have not tried it yet on the 8 x 10. Do any of you know what improvments in performance might have been made from the Series VIIA to the Series VIIB?
