As I just responded to Lluis, this was probably an "entry level" lens for Ross, with focal length of 8-in and a maximum entry pupil of 1/2-inch, hence an f/16 lens wide open, with four smaller Waterhouse stops.? The fact that? it will probably cover 5x7 or 8x10 doesn't help me much.? It would have been right at home with a pneumatic Packard shutter and squeeze bulb.
