Dear Guy, Could you tell us more about the Adon's range of focal lengths,
maximum aperture and whether all images are soft focus or just max aperture.
Is it a 5x4 lens ? Philip
> the one I have has a signature of Dallmeyer. It is basically a "zoom"
lens and I use it on my 4x5 Linhof field. I found it on eBay from England
and paid probably too much for it but I get some rather interesting results
out of it.> > I was able to get a step-ring machine-tooled here in Montreal
to fit it on a Ilex 3x shutter with a dedicated lens-plate for my Linhof.
It is a bit tricky to use in terms of working out the proper exposure times
but I get some really nice soft-focus images from it.
