+-300mm +-f3 on arca swiss 4x5 monorail. Exposure 4 seconds at f3 on paper negative (rated iso 10). The lens is a biconvex element from cheap loup (1 euro).

Sorry about the stains on the paper :s I'd like to try the lens on an 8x10, but don't have a suitable camera, and film is to epensive for me :s
