1890-1905 Brass Lenses for Sale |
Scovill Waterbury Lens in B size for 5x8 inch coverage and a focal length of 10 inches and f/15 in speed. Includes original flange. Lens is in nice clean condition with very good glass and ready to use after a light dusting..... Lens barrel has obtained a vintage copper-y hue to the finish... Very appealing for the collector and certainly very usable to shoot with. Lens circa 1892.
While I would never do it - some people are removing the stop wheel and then drilling a larger aperture for an instant Soft Focus lens at a reasonable price !
