500mm Wollaston Meniscus lens

Mar 26, 2015

This low cost lens is just a simple lens in a piece of plastic pipe, but it has a special look! Never very sharp it gives an old time feel and a nice amount of soft focus when stopped down a bit. Not good for color but nice with monochrome.

Also it gives a large image circle.
