Is anyone familiar with a Planatograph Lens?
Search didn't show much beyond larger ones for sale...and Ole's thread...
Bausch and Lomb - Small - Elements around 3/4 inch
Looks to be a 5 1/2 inch lens and covers 4x5 wide open
Mounted in a simple brass Kodak shutter...
Aperture scale - f4 to 128 - US scale so probably around f8
Curious if anyone is familiar with design....use....positives, negatives...
Neighbor brought this one over, I have another on a 4x5 Premo that actually says 4x5 Planatograph....this new one only has Planatograph...
Haven't shot with either...
Any info would be appreciated....
Thanks in advance,
Dan
