VERY RARE EARLY J. H. DALLMEYER LONDON ADON PATENT TELEPHOTO PRIME LENS
SERIAL NUMBER: 65995
MADE IN LONDON UNITED KINGDOM
EARLY DALLMEYER TELE PRIME LENS WITH NICE SHARP BRIGHT OPTICS WHICH CONSIDERING THE LENSES AGE OPTICS ARE PRETTY GOOD THROUGHOUT
DONT GET ME WRONG THERE WILL POSSIBLY BE AN ODD MINOR CLEANING MARK SCRATCH & THE ODD DUST PARTICLE PRESENT
BUT PERSONALLY I THINK THEY ARE GOOD SHAPE FOR IT'S AGE & ARE BRIGHT & CLEAR & NOT HIDING ANY FUNG...US OR HAZES INTERNALLY
AS SHOWN LENS BODYWORK IS NOT PERFECT EITHER WITH PAINT LOSS & SCRATCHES ABOUT THE BODY , THE SCREW MOUNT THREADS ALSO HAVE SOME WEAR
HOWEVER LENS STILL THREADS ON NICELY & THREADS PERFORM AS THEY ARE INTENDED TO DO SO AS LONG AS YOU FIT THE LENS WITH CARE AS THEY ARE ONLY ALLOY THREADS
SOME PARTS ON THE BODY ARE MADE OF BRASS & OBVIOUSLY SOME PARTS ARE ALUMINIUM AS YOU CAN SEE BY THE EBAY PHOTOGRAPHS
THE LENS FOCUSING WHEEL STILL FOCUSES OK HOWEVER I AM UNSURE IF IT SUPPOSED TO FOCUS ANY FURTHER THAN THAT SHOWN IN THE LAST IMAGE AS THE FOCUS WHEEL STARTS TO SLIP
I ASSUME THATS THE END OF THE FOCUSING SCALE ANYWAY HOWEVER I AM NOT 100% CERTAIN ON THIS & MOST PEOPLE WOULD POSSIBLY USE THE LENS VIA A HELICOID MOUNT
IRIS SETTINGS ARE FUNCTIONAL RIGHT THROUGH FROM 1 TO 32 (NOT SURE IF THE 1 MARKING RELATES TO f/1) HOWEVER IT COULD WELL BE AS THE OTHER STOPS ARE MARKED AT 2, 4, 6, 8, 16 & 32
LENS IS EXACT ONE AS SHOWN IN THE EBAY PHOTOGRAPHS WHICH WERE TAKEN BY MYSELF SPECIFICALLY FOR EBAYS LISTING PURPOSES
