  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Taylor hobson 18mm/f2

Well i checked numerous sites with stills from photo camera, i was wondering about real video footage from video camera :)
 
cause...?

The original Cooke Speed Pancros were designed in 1921, not sure the exact date of the 18mm. By 1940 the series II was a huge improvement.
The original lenses from the 1920's were nothing like as sharp & had more flair issues. I remember testing a mid focal length original lens 30 years ago V a series II, the difference was huge even on a Stienbeck (SP).
 
horrible vimeo quality Robert, BUT what a beautiful flare on your Pancro lens!!!

vimeo...Yes and very down and dirty, sorry about that.....great glass though..hard to believe how old they are and still how desirable the look is.
