I have an old Hugo Meyer Double Anastigmat 14 1/4" f/7.7 that I picked up badly fogged on the auction site a year or two ago. For some crazy reason I sent it off to Focal Point to re-cement and clean up--the price of which was about 4 times the price of the lens. The lens cleaned up well for the most part (some interior specks) but I hadn't had time measure the image circle till now. Roughly 28" and when you pull an element it goes to around 56"! My 8yr old son helped hold the white board in darkened bathroom and gasped when he saw the 56" image. Guess I don't need to worry about coverage on the 8x10! Is this coverage typical of 14" dagors?
