Re: 355mm G Claron f11 variant.
If I had one, given the lack of information on them, I’d market it as a NASA lens and bung the price sky high!

Has anyone ever seen one of those? As they were being produced alongside the regular 150/9 G Clarons, but in much larger batches, I expect they were going into some sort of industrial machinery.
Yes, at last some info on that f11 150mm lens.
Happy this thread was revived. Well yes I have one of those f11 lenses.
Asked about it before in another thread
https://www.largeformatphotography.i...=1#post1557067
Always said I would mount it and have a try.
Guess I have to now.
And if you think the f9 150mm lens is small and light, you almost need a microscope to see the f11 version.

I found someone else on eBay selling my G-Claron 355/11 lens.
It's amazing. Looking at the serial number and shape characteristics,
it is definitely my lens. This lens does not exist in Japan.
I am Korean and currently live in Seoul, South Korea.
I bought this lens in Japan, and he is stealing the photo for sale at the time.
Never buy this lens on eBay!!
This lens will never be shipped.
I have constantly notified this seller to delete the sale.
he never has an answer
Thankfully, he even arbitrarily set the price for my lenses.
I don't understand how this happens.
I've seen the G-Claron 355/11 lens a few times.
Serial number 13673*** exists in the zone.
I don't know what purpose Schneider made it for,
but it's compact and great as a photographic lens.

Re: 355mm G Claron f11 variant.
Thanks, Anoikodomeo.
Do you have any capacity to test your lens’ coverage?
I suspect it will be less than the f9 as it’s in a Copal 1.
Re: 355mm G Claron f11 variant.
I don't have the ability to measure coverage.
However, although it is speculation, the coverage of this lens seems to be wide.
If I get a chance, I'll learn how to measure coverage and let you know.

surprising. That lens on eBay is my G-Claron 355/11 lens.
I am Korean and I live in Seoul, South Korea.
The pictures posted on eBay are obviously my lens pictures.
I bought that lens in Japan, and these are the pictures that were posted when I bought the lens.
Don't buy the 355/11 lens on eBay.
Lenses will not be delivered to you.
I asked the Japanese seller to delete the sales post few days ago.
But he still has no answer.

Well, buying from a seller with a 91,8 % rating would be a gamble to say the least. One of the worst ratings I’ve seen.

I've asked him/her some questions since a few days ago, but no answers. Perhaps he/she won't answer.
I have reported this issue to eBay. I just hope this issue doesn't cause any victims.
Re: 355mm G Claron f11 variant.
Perhaps it was created to get some of the sales that the Fujinon A 360 f10 was targeting?
