Thanks Asher! The four seasons here are close to my heart, I like how nature glows in summer, explodes in so many colors in our golden autumns, decays in winter and goes to a cold sleep, them explodesd agains in fresh and young green in spring. So wonderful to see every year...I would not want to miss this...
Yes indeed it is a very special and very fast (f1.0) projection lens. which has been mechanically modified to be able to be used as ataking lens, as its back focua is very short, so some "surgery" was needed.
Ahah! Well Klaus, you have my attention. Surgery interests me very much!

hi hi, my mechanic took out the rear lens group, shortened the barrel and then re-inserted that group again and fixed it. Now it works up to infinity!! And he did not even have to Xray it....
Brilliant!
Took me a second to realize the X-Ray was a joke related to surgery on humans! (I don’t think that journalist in Istanbul was X-rayed either)! Did you define the required final tube length? What’s the math?
Did you find a detailed description of the focal lengths of the rear elements?

Such beautiful images. I loved all the images.
