There only seem to be some circa 1890 lenses of this kind.. any ideas why?
If I really really wanted one, what would be the difficulties in making my own or adapting a video lens to this purpose?
Also, what would an astigmatic lens do to the image -- make it fuzzy (again, there are some old varifocals I'd consider)? I imagine any crisp images would need strong filters on the front.
