She is looking at you like you better run far away...

I have one of those lenses. You can really use it without the front element?

[MichaelPRyan]

Yes you sure can. It was designed to do that. Do you have the secondary green marking on the face of the shutter? Don't underestimate this lens it is a beauty. Actually one of the first lenses to be designed with a computer.

Mine may not work then. It is a Caltar II S, no markings for a convertible. Ah well, brief hope anyway.

Self portrait, captured with a Rochester Universal 5x7 camera... with the shot is a Rochester 5x8 Improved camera from about 1886?

Nice!

Hello,

my first session with 4x5 - my model saw the camera and we ended making a selfie

Some light leak from the right - having a flash there didn't help...

All the best, Andreas
