I picked up this lens on a whim, and it is meant to cover 4x5. The serial number is 45009xx. I have searched on both the Schneider sites (U.S and Germany), as well as on this site and on Google, and can hardly find anything about it. Does anyone have a data sheet or any other information on it?
In general it is in fantastic shape, with the exception of a little haze between the two front elements. Does anyone know what it would cost to clear that out, and sanitized, in case it is an early case of fungus?
The Synchro-Compur shutter also needs some TLC, running slow at the slow speeds, at least. The shutter-open-lever also returns to closed rather slowly, and sometimes it hangs. I can use T for this for now, but would like it fixed, of course.
I am located in Berlin, Germany, in case anyone has a repair place to suggest.
