Verito 9 inch Diffused Focus F4

[bracan]

Anyone know the circle on this? Would it cover 8x10?

Thanks

The 11.5" barely covers so I doubt the smaller ones would.

You could try converting it by taking off the front element.

Does that mean if I taking off front element, I cant get diffused look?

Thank you Corran

[Corran]

It is still diffuse, at least when I've taken the front element off of my 11.5 it is very diffuse so I assume the same will be true of your 9".

Thanks a lot Corran!

My 7 1/2 inch covers wholeplate (6 1/2 X 8 1/2), so I'm pretty sure a 9 inch would cover 8x10. Veritos seem to cover a lot. I can check if you need, but if you have the 9" in hand, it will be easier for you to check.

Unfortunatelly dont have a lens in my hand
Anyway, Thanks!

Would it cover 8x10?

Thanks

no. It is a 5x7 lens at best.

[goamules]

no. It is a 5x7 lens at best.

Eddie, if a smaller 7.5" covers 6 1/2 X 8 1/2, why would a longer 9 inch only cover 5x7?! Maybe at your higher latitudes in NY they don't cover as much?

If you check the 1912 Wollensak catalog on Seth Broder's Camera Eccentric site ( http://www.cameraeccentric.com/html/...llensak_9.html ) you will find the Verito on page 12. The 9" is listed as suitable for 5x7, for 8x10 you needed the 14 1/2" version.
