Lenses and their "personality"..

[Emil Schildt]

But this is a fun thread and shows what CAN be done with a particular lens.

indeed... can..

[Ginette]

indeed... can..

Great topic Emil, continue to post, what a amazing lenses collection too.

[Jim Galli]

Emil, I am late to the party because I knew it might not be wise to open these at work. Had to wait until I was at home.

BRAVO sir! Perhaps I'll share a couple soon.

I have made some quick images of some of my lenses, and then added an image made by that lens...

I know many here know a lot more than me about this stuff, but I also think it might be of some use or inspiration for those not familiar with exotic names...

I would ask about image size taken by this Dallmeyer Landscape? What aperture do you have for this model? I have seen two types of aperture revolver or waterhouse with many holes, what type of aperture has your lens?

[Steven Tribe]

You can see Emil's landscape (patent) no. 4 in picture 2, post #63.

These are with wheel stops - even the largest sizes.

The top unit with the wheel can be removed quite easily, but there is a restricting aperture remaining.
This is apparently just a pressure fit. The example is from a 5a size.

[PawelR]

I get it, so its possible to make own stop like that:

Indeed yes! The imagon disk idea has been applied to quite a few meniscus lenses I have seen under the hammer, including a Plassticca.

Here is another one shot on 8 x 10 with the Kodak 305 Portrait lens.

Beautiful Jim!
