    FS: Bausch & Lomb Rapid Rectilinear

    This lens came off a trashed Kodak Autographic folding camera. The focal length at infinity is about 138mm (measured on my Cambo by focusing on a distant scene). I've decided I need to get a more "modern" lens (or at least a modern shutter). The glass is a little dusty but there are no noticeable scratches. It shows its age.

    The mount appears to be about 34mm, and the retaining ring is included. It fits in a Copal #0-sized lens board with a little play.

    It covers 4x5 with no evident problem, and I've used just the front element on 8x10; there is a picture I took with the front element in my gallery. The shutter is a Kodak Ball Bearing, and it appears to work at all speeds (1/25th, 1/50th, 1/100th, T and B). I generally use it on T for previewing and B for shooting as my exposures have all been several seconds long with the lens stopped down. The aperture scale is the old US system, maximum appears to be about f/8 in the new system.

    Starting price is $50 plus shipping. I can take a check, money order, or carefully-mailed cash. No PayPal here, sorry.

    Okay, nobody seems interested in this, closing the thread.
