  1. Re: Which lens to achieve shallow DOF on 4x5" RB Graflex Super D?

    Re: Goerz Celor 1A

    Thanks for the info. It seems to be patented in 1908. Weird that it's not in 1910 or 1915 catalog. That would leave only 2 years of possible manufacture.

    Yes, this is what i have noted also. It's not thorium but it has a yellow hue.. constant from lens to lens. And it seems to be on all elements, so probably the glass type used to compensate thorium.
