wabi-sabi Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 I have an old Graphlex and i was wondering where i could get this huge lens i have seen to take night photos? Are they made that way or will i have to fabricate it? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skygzr Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 Google "Aero Ektar"....I assume that's the lens you're talking about. They turn up on eBay fairly frequently. http://www.johndesq.com/graflex/aero.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john_stafford2 Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 On the one-hand, the Aero Ektar is fast but just a (nominal) normal lens for its intended 5x5" coverage. (I have one NIB.) And then there is the Metrogon 13*(+-) (each individually calibrated) which covers 8x10! It's fast enough. See the later here: http://course1.winona.edu/jstafford/skc Yes, I also dream of a true sky-lens (aka:fish-eye) for 8x10. Heck, 4x5 would do. :)<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
