  1. #1 FS: 3 sets of vintage 35mm BNC/BNCR lenses (Cooke Panchro, Baltar, Som Berthiot) 
    *SOLD* Set 1 (25,28,30,32,35,50,75,100): $3,500
    Mostly Cooke Speed Panchros with a couple Baltar lenses. All lenses are housed in BNC mounts. Glass is in Good to Excellent condition. All rings move smoothly. All lenses have protective caps on the front and come in a custom built case. As with most vintage glass, there are some light cleaning marks on the front element, but no deep scratches on any of the lenses. They could use a cleaning inside, as you can see dust inside most of the lenses when you shine a flashlight through them. Below are some details for each lens in the set.
    25mm - Baltar, Bausch and Lomb, f/2.3, Iris - smooth, Focus - smooth, no fungus, no bubbling
    28mm - Cooke Speed Panchro, f/2, Iris - smooth, Focus - smooth, no fungus, no bubbling, small hair inside lens
    30mm - Baltar, Bausch and Lomb, f2.3, Iris - smooth, Focus - smooth, no fungus, no bubbling
    32mm - Cooke Speed Panchro Ser II, f/2, Iris - stuck open, Focus - smooth, no fungus, no bubbling
    35mm - Cooke Speed Panchro, f/2, Iris - smooth, Focus - smooth, no fungus, no bubbling
    50mm - Cooke Speed Panchro, f/2, Iris - smooth, Focus - smooth, no fungus, some bubbling
    75mm - Cooke Speed Panchro, f/2, Iris - smooth, Focus - smooth, no fungus, no bubbling
    100mm - Cooke Deep Field Panchro, f/2.5, Iris - smooth, Focus - smooth, no fungus, no bubbling


    SOLD Set 2 (25,28,35,40,50,75,100,+75): $2,500
    Mostly Baltar lenses with a couple Cooke Panchros. There is a duplicate Baltar 75mm in this kit. Both 75mm lenses and the 100mm are in BNCR mounts, and the rest are in BNC. Each lens has follow focus rings. There are no lens caps for the BNCR lenses (75,75,100). All the glass is clean with no scratches. Like the first set these have a little dust inside them.
    25mm - Baltar, Bausch and Lomb, f/2.3, Iris - smooth, Focus - smooth, no fungus, no bubbling
    28mm - Cooke Speed Panchro, f/2, Iris - smooth, Focus - smooth, no fungus, no bubbling
    35mm - Baltar, Bausch and Lomb, f/2.3, Iris - smooth, Focus - smooth, no fungus, no bubbling
    40mm - Baltar, Bausch and Lomb, f/2.3, Iris - smooth, Focus - smooth, no fungus, no bubbling
    50mm - Cooke Speed Panchro, f/2, Iris blades totally crunched! Someone turned this lenses way past closed and ruined the iris blades :(
    75mm - Baltar, Bausch and Lomb, f/2.3, Iris - smooth, Focus - smooth, no fungus, no bubbling
    75mm - Baltar, Bausch and Lomb, f/2.3, Iris - smooth, Focus - smooth, no fungus, no bubbling (Duplicate lens)
    100mm - Baltar, Bausch and Lomb, f/2.3, Iris - stiff, Focus - smooth, no fungus, no bubbling


    SOLD Set 3 (28,35,40,50,75,100): $2,000
    This is a real mix of some great lenses. Unfortunately, I have no idea what kind of mount these lenses are housed in. The housings look like they are in fantastic condition and very well made. These lenses were used on a custom made 35mm film crash camera. I think it may be difficult to use these lenses on anything other than that camera (which I can also get if interested). All lenses have front and rear caps and a custom made case and camera mount.
    28mm - Som Berthiot, f/3.3, Iris - smooth, no fungus, no bubbling
    35mm - ???, ??? (Can't see the brand or speed), Iris - smooth, no fungus, no bubbling
    40mm - Cooke Double Speed Panchro, f/2, no fungus, no bubbling
    50mm - Ernst Leitz, f/2, Iris - smooth (not de-clicked), no fungus, no bubbling
    75mm - Cooke Speed Panchro, f/2, Iris - not moving, but I think its a problem with the housing... not the lens, no fungus, no bubbling
    100mm - Baltar, f/2.3, Iris - smooth, not sure if its fungus, but this lens needs to be opened and cleaned for sure

    I have made an honest attempt to give an accurate description of the lenses for sale. If you have any questions I will be more than happy to try to answer them. I have only a basic understanding of these lenses and their condition, so please excuse my ignorance in advance. Thanks!
