Rodenstock-Rotelar 180/4.5 info...

[Bob Sawin]

I just received this lens and can find very little about it. I would like to use it on a Toyo 45A11. If anyone has info on this lens I would appreciate reading it.

2x3 lens. Covers 130 mm @ f/22 @ infinity. More coverage at near distances, but that's not what it was made for. Oops!

Telephotos have smaller coverage than lenses of normal construction and the same focal length. They can be snares for the unwary.

Thanks Dan. I appreciate the info.
