  8. Re: C.C. Harrison, and Rapid Rectilinear, and... Unknown Lenses?

    December 1852 article mentioning guarding against fraudulent CC Harrison lenses.

    Re: Want Lens Suggestion late 19th C.

    A classic lens, that is pretty inexpensive, is the Darlot Wide Angle Hemispherical View Lens. This one has the three levers to be used as stops for the lens.
