Bausch & Lomb Zeiss Series V Protar 5X7 123mm F18 Lens in Volute Shutter, Crispy

Description: Offered here is a vintage Bausch & Lomb Zeiss Series V Protar 5X7 in a non working Volute vintage shutter. The Series V Protars have a maximum aperture of F18 and were also called "extreme wide angle" Protars. "The angle of view of the image circle is about 110 degrees". What that means is the tiny little lens with a focal length of 4.875" (123mm) will cover 5X7 wide open and 8X10 when stopped down. This lens dates to the mid 19 teens and is an uncoated lens. The glass is tiny but absolutely beautiful, clear and unmarked. The lens can be used as it is using a lens cap to control exposure or it can be easily remounted into a modern Copal #0 shutter or similar by a skilled machinist. As mentioned above the Volute shutter is in non working condition, it is missing both of it's scales and it's retaining ring. Because of the shutters condition we are offering the lens for hundreds of dollars less than similar lenses are being offered for currently on eBay and elsewhere online. Don't let this rare and useful little beauty get away.
