[alex from holland]

This lens is surely missing it's back element. I have had a lens similar to this one.
As votaly says, the whs is directy in fornt of the flange thread.

The "winning" bidder is likely German speaking (he watches German language listing). If feedback is not left within the next week or so, he may never be identified. Which would also probably mean that the deal has not gone through.

and yes too regarding this eBay listing, when I looked at it, albeit not spending too much time, it didn't look "the full ticket"

Almost forgot.

T,T & H complete casket including the RV(P) 5.4". Made for 1/4 plate, I think, but the RV(P) combination will cover 4x5.

350985463554 - £293. Over 40 bids.

Nice casket set, I think Mark got one last year too.
Though I know what you're saying (they're probably the same except for the speed) but for the record there is no RV(P) lens. Their lenses are either marked Rapid View (RV) or Rapid View Portrait (RVP), with correspondingly different speeds.

[Steven Tribe]

Agreed. What I implied was that the iris on these casket sets allows a faster F compared with the standard RV from Taylor.
