Thank, Jim.
I have another 2 brass lenses similar yours, one is 1890 design Carl Zeiss
Protar Series V 80mm F18, the smallest one of my brass lenses, the size of
front glass is smaller than the nail of my little finger.

Another one was designed by Dallmeyer in 1866, Wray London Wide Angle
Rectilinear 6 inches, F16, very compact too.

I put them onto an Ilex #5 shutter for speed control.

I'm planning to bring these 3 brass lenses to UK in Aug & I purchased
3x50pcs Kodak TMAX100 4x5 films for the trip. Major take B&W 4x5 shots &
OM-D will take color pictures. I have ordered a lens of Pana 45-175X and I
believe that enough as "side arm" in the trip.
