    Hermagis Format Size

    I have a 'Hermagis Portrait Sie2 No2'. The barrel is about 4.5 inches in diameter and 6 inches long without the lens shade. The aperature goes from f3 to f14. Looking at the reflections in the glass it seems there is one element in front and two in the back. The lens focuses on infinity about 13 inches from the aperature ring. I've read the various posts US vs Standard vs French aperiture sizes.

    Any thoughts on format size vs format Numbers or on the lens type? At f3, its one of the faster large format lens I've seen. I'm a few weeks away from mounting the lens.
