dear all, particularly the forum's many lens guru's
I've a fairly heavy f4 portrait Euryscop III No5 s/n 61897
From the end of the lens hood to the end of the rear element, it measures 190cm, with the rear element having an outside width of 96mm
it c/w one w/stop marked f4/f6.3 and is mounted on a 6 1/2" sq board, so unless I'm way out of the ball park, it seems to be a fast lens for the weight.......??
Because of the weight none of my cameras have a sufficiently supportive front standard, so I've never been able to use it - if anyone has any idea what the focal length is and the maximum format that it would cover, then I'd be very grateful
as an aside the glass is A1 and there are no chips, haze, balsam separation etc etc
I've looked at other Euryscope sales on here and unless I've missed one (or two), there have been sales for it's cousins but not this version. I'd also be very interested if anyone has any info on recent sales
grateful thx indeed
