New 195mm f/1.25 8x10 lenses?

As seen here - http://cgi.ebay.com.au/FAST-f1-25-19...item414f1922cd

Seems to be interesting.. even if its soft (likely) there's still a lot of info on a large negative.. and it'd be the speed that counts... fair few people seem to like soft focus too.. interesting option.


"300MM-500MM focal length refractor combining both elements/f=2-3.5 combined respectively."

Any opinions?


I've often thought about making up some odd lens designs out of soda lime glass by turning and cutting a wooden template into the surface with some kind of glass cutter.

I believe there have been some discussions of this lens, but I don't have a link to the threads at the moment.
