Schneider 250mm f/5.6 Tele-Arton - GREAT FOR CAMERAS WITH LIMITED BELLOWS DRAW!!

Description: This is a used Schneider Tele-Arton 250mm f/5.6 lens for large format cameras up to 5x7. A generally less well known lens, the Tele-Arton is typically rated superior to it’s sister, the Tele-Xenar. This lens is in good condition and ready to work, especially on cameras with a limited bellows draw. It’s telephoto design means it focuses at infinity in under the 250mm/9.84in focal length indicates. So if your camera has short bellows, say only 12in/305mm, the Tele-Arton can fulfill your yearning for a narrower field of view for portrait, table-top and still-life photography by allowing you to move closer to your subject. The Schneider Tele-Arton is typical of Schneider build quality. It’s barrel is robust and has a good hefty feel. The optics are clear and clean with no fog, fungus or separation. The multicoating will provide improved contrast and reduce flare. There is an off-center mark in the front element at about 8 o’clock that will not affect image quality. The modern Copal No. 1 shutter is properly timed, operates smoothly and fires electronic flash normally. Cosmetically this lens carries the marks of normal use and handling but no abuse or damage. The Schneider ships complete with front and rear lens caps and retaining ring ready to mount on your lensboard. It’s perfect for any Graflex or field camera… Specifications: Manufacturer: Schneider, Germany Focal Length: 250mm Optical Construction: 5 elements, 5 groups Optical Coating: Multicoated Shutter: Copal No. 1 Aperture Range: f/5.6 to f/32 Shutter Speed Range: 1/400th second to 1 second, B, T Maximum Recommended Format: 5x7 Filter/Accessory Size: 67mm Flange Focal Distance: 207mm Synchronization: X at all shutter speeds Diameter: 2.76in/70mm Length: 4.6in/11.73cm Weight: 1.77lb/805g; 1.8lb/828g with caps Quality Camera Company has over 12,000 feedbacks!
