Hello!
I just recently got my filthy hands on a beast of a lens - Apo-Germinar 360/9. Came with a flange and all. What can you tell me about this lens? It seems to cover a LOT!
Edit: How much do I have to move the lens to focus from infinity to lets say - a meter and a half?

See http://www.kenleegallery.com/html/tech/bellows.php
1/F = 1/D + 1/B
where F = focal length, D = distance, B = Bellows Draw
Given a 360mm lens and 1500mm distance how much bellows draw is required ?
F = 360mm, D = 1500mm
1/360 = 1/1500 + 1/B
1/B = 1/360 - 1/1500
1/D = 0.0027 - 0.0007
1/D = 0.002
D= 500
Bellows Draw = 500mm

Hi Vallo,

Image circle for your lens is 596mm at f22 and 1:1 scale

Thanks!
The required bellows draw puts me off a bit but I'll figure something out.
