Dallmeter Adon Zoom Lens complete, beautiful

Description: Possibly the world’s first Zoom or variable lens. The glass is free of fungus, chips and scratches. The focus is smooth and secure, the diapragm is smooth and excellent. Pictures are of the lens and everything in the pictures are included. I would estimate the zoom at over 250mm with a lens opening of at least F:6.8, I am told it will cover 8x10 inches and larger, therefore making it a wide angle lens. I appears to be quite sharp on my Nikon when attached to the bellows and using the internal focus of the Adon I HAVE BEEN ADVISEDOF THE FOLLOWING, THIS IS A BETTER DESCRIPITON OF THE LENS QUALITIES: ".just a couple of points about the Adon. first, is NOT a zoom lens, although it is a variable focal length telephoto lens that needs to be refocused every time the focal length is changed. it is certainly not a wide angle - at 250mm it will cover only 6x9cm or about, but it will indeed cover 8x10 when set to 800mm or so. it was an outstanding lens for its time that will produce wonderful results more than a century later.best,jim DuSel Had it in my collection for over 35 years, it will produce sharp pictures in color and Black and white. No fungus, no fog or separation. Smooth focussing. A very worth while lens that will fit and focus on all large format view cameras. I am selling my photo collection of over 50 years. Don’t be afraid to make an offer on anything, I have tried to price the items fairly, but if you are a user or collecter I am willing to help. Pictures of actual lens, a great original condition collectable. Will ship world wide, no reserve. Buyer pays shipping and ins. _gsrx_vers_1502 (GS 9.2 (1502))
