    Goerz 75mm Centigor............anyone have one?

    I've written about my centigor before. Centi /100 degree field of view. Gor/ Goerz
    It is a very sharp lens and has good contrast. My question is this. Does anyone else have one besides the other one I sold to a list member 15 yrs ago? It must be rare since when I google it only my posts seem to show up. Anyone?

    Is your lens a biogon type?
    I have a 38mm goerz hycon, which is the same design as a ziess biogon I beleive.
    I ahve seen these usually as a 75mm for arial cameras. They are also labeled as a aerogor.

    Does it look like the 3" f6 Rectagon, also a double Gauss design (page 18 here: http://www.cameraeccentric.com/html/info/goerz_3.html)?

    John... there's an extra ")?" at the end of your URL.

    It is very similar to a rectagon. But each element has a different measured curvature. it covers a 100 degrees and will cover 4x5 nicely.
