Near-mint Schneider APO-Artar 360mm f/9 large format lens mounted in a Copal No. 3 shutter. The apochromatic, flat-field optical design was developed for exceptionally sharp, highly corrected process and reproduction work and is also valued as a compact normal focal length for 8x10 view cameras. All shutter speeds work properly, and all settings and adjustments operate smoothly. The glass is clean and clear, with no fungus, haze or separation. The aperture blades are clean and free of oil. Includes both original Schneider front and rear caps plus the retaining ring. Serial number 14273986. The barrel and shutter show only minimal signs of careful handling, consistent with the near-mint condition. Please examine the photos for additional cosmetic details.
