I went over to my girlfriends house the other day and she handed me this. It seems she used to work for a company that did year book photography and they occasionally used a LF camera with a roll-film back. I am new at LF and I’m wondering if what I have is a barrel lens and if all I need is a shutter for it? The glass is pretty much spotless, and I would like to put it to use. “7 ˝” Ilex Paragon” on the front and that’s it. 2 1/16th” long and 2” dia. It looks like it has a built in flange. If this is a barrel lens, what kind of shutter might work with it? …. I am new at this and my ignorance is showing….
