    Eddie,
    Adjust half as far as twice the focal length. Either way, in or out. Glad to help.

    Half of 2X the focal length IS the focal length?

    Re: Puyo lens

    Isn't it 1/400th of the focal length added to the visual focussing length to obtain the actinic in-focus position?

    Example, 150mm lens - sharp visual focus at 147mm - actinic focus is at 147.375mm.
    I am surprised more objectives didn't have the fixed built in adjustment lever that the Rodenstock Bistigmat had.

    But that means you adjust your lens which is at infinity down to zero bellows length or 2X bellows length. (either way in or out) for chemical focus

    I the humble buyer received the mystery item today and when my week of family gathering ends I will dutyfully open and clean the lens and mount it ! I will let you guys informed of the improvement (can't be harder than trying to understand my daughter when she speaks her barbaric celtic)
    Besides from the link posted here I think it's the later edition of objectif d'artiste, "le nouveau" ..

    Would that be Breton, Manx, Irish, Welsh, Gaelic or Cornish (which would be a sensation!)?
