The focus ranges are: > > no ring - infinity to 3.5m > one ring - 3.5m to 2.76m > two rings - 2.76m to 2.33m > three rings 2.33m to 2.06m > > The info is from the 1978 general catalogue. Thanks. Still pretty restrictive. I was hoping for something that would provide, say, 20m to 1.5m, or something like that. Guess short of machining a new focussing mount... ;) M. - -- Martin Howard | Hardware will break.
