Hey,

I'm finding info on 125mm Fujinon CM-W lenses but not too much on the 120mm Fujinon SW.

Image circle is about 280mm IIRC.

I'm interested in Filter size, weight of lens and whether or not its multi coated.

The lens in question is on KEH's website. Last time I contacted them for info they replied, "I don't know. The lens is in the warehouse not here."

Thanks

The info I have on the SW 120/8 is 290mm IC and 77mm filter, single coated (markings inside the filter ring).
The shutter is listed as a Seiko 0.

I got the info posted above from his other list, which is sorted by lens series... same info.

I had one and used it quite a bit on 8x10. It just knocks off the corners of the 8X10 negative. I usually crop these wide views and print 8X14 or 10X16. I liked it a lot as it was small and light, but I found a good deal on the 120/f8 Nikkor SW which covers the whole negative, and I sold it for $350.

Hi,
could you tell something about quality and sharpness?
I could buy one, but is not "so" small: a double cone, similar to Schenider Super Ang 72mm, as a shape...
Thank you

Here is a sample of one. As Neal says, it just knocks off the corner of 8x10. So it can hardly be considered a lens for that format. It's a 77mm filter size, single coated lens. And it is quite sharp. The barn photo was shot with this lens. The thing that interests me most about this lens is that, even though it is single coated, it is very resistant to flair.

Here is an 8X10 exposure with the 120mm Fujinon W, cropped top and bottom. Even though I have a 120 that covers 8X10 completely now, I still find I crop this way on most prints.
