    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

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Perhaps it was created to get some of the sales that the Fujinon A 360 f10 was targeting?
