    Can you tell me anything about this lens please?

    Focal length seems to be 10" measuring from the iris to the film plane.

    It came with my 'generic' English Half Plate which I am in the process of repairing.

    No shutter of course.Click image for larger version.

    Looks like a generic English Rapid Rectilinear. Should be a decent lens, if a little slow at f/8. Very likely original to the camera.

    Thank you. My research to date has said the same thing but being new to the medium I wanted to check.
