Had to share this as I am jazzed about this lens! A Jim Galli special 5" B&L Cinephor odified Petzval... F2.5 and Packard mounted on the front and placed into a home made lensboard on my Chamonix 45-1N.... I took this on Tuesday afternoon and printed it last night....

The print is on FOMA MG '131' emulsion souped in Agfa Neutol WA. Lightly bleached back, lightly sepia toned and finished in selenium.

As the coverage of this is not full 4x5, I cropped it square and seems to be perfect for that format. At anyrate, the OOF areas are wonderful when shooting close focused subjects and not as crazy as when foliage is in the frame where it swirls violently! Thanks Jim for this great lens.
