re: #55 goddamnedfrank

On a whim I decided to check and it appears someone put the Holy Grail of photographic lenses up for sale.

This lens has five internal filters that rotate in and out of the central path for B&W color correction (because the shape prevents external filters.)

It can also see behind itself (220 degree field of view)

The price reflects that this was never a production lens, every single one was made to order and only a handful exist.

He’s selling 2, or one under two prices. EBay calculates that it is 100,000 miles from my zipcode.
