Can anyone share images taken with this or another size Verito? They look to be a good size lens..will it cover 8x10?
Thanks, Steve

These may be more torwards the way the lens was originally intended, as a detail obscurer
for portraiture, than as people use them today, for the glow and odd effects.The 14.5"
should cover 8x10 fine.

Very nice Michael, thank you for sharing.
You are in Chicago? My mother was a harpist many years ago, when she passed my dad sold her harp to a young gal in Chicago.
Strangest lens I ever used in terms of look it rendered was 35 summilux M pre asph. It did some funny stuff..
There's a page here, where folks only post pics made with Verito. There's also a bunch of Verito work on my web pages. 14.5 covers 8X10 great.
It was made for 8x10 ... here's a page from the 1916 catalog and a closeup of a '39 Chrysler made with a 14.5" on 8x10:

And, here are two more examples with the 11 1/2"
The bicycle/window has been photo-shopped to add contrast but the portrait and Chrysler (prior post) are close to original.
In any case it gives you a feel for the lens.
All 3 were shot at f-4. My preference generally on the Veritos is around f-6. Closed more than that it gets sharp real fast ... although the out of focus areas stay real nice.

Can't see the pics on the second post Jim. Love the Chrysler shot.
Think I fixed the problem ... thanks JimOriginally Posted by Jim Galli
Jim, love the images. I need to take my 14.5 Verito out more!
What F-stop was the Chrysler picture taken, and how much of the burned-out shiny effect is due to the film, not the lens (no anti-hilation backing?)?It was made for 8x10 ... here's a page from the 1916 catalog and a closeup of a '39 Chrysler made with a 14.5" on 8x10:
