Seller: andrewp4698 ✉️ (1,228) 0%, Location: Aynho, Banbury, GB, Ships to: WORLDWIDE, Item: 183234160635 "Ensign" brass Regular Telephoto lens + 5" R&J Beck WA RR lens & TTH flange. To me, this is an very unusual and rarely seen item When used together, there are three sections (the condition of the brass overall being pretty immaculate):-
  • a Taylor, Taylor & Hobson flange (the outer width being 74mm);
  • the "Ensign" Telephoto section (with s/n: 132832) which has a single element (in the rear section) and with a fully working 'rack and pinion' action; and
  • a 5" R & J Beck Ltd Wide Angle Rapid Rectilinear lens c/w fully working iris wheel stops
When taken apart, the WA RR lens is a direct fit for the TT&H flange Probably designed for the vintage style SLR Medium Format Cameras, when used together this should also be suitable for the British Quarter-Plate format.  As to the WA lens itself, lenses of this design are convertible, longer focal lengths (and also larger Format sizes) can be obtained by using either element separately There are no dings or marks to the lovely brass and the elements themselves have noticeably very bright and clear glass with no defects All in all a really terrific item Please look at my other Auctions, I'm selling a large number of items as I have far too much equipment to use even on an irregular basis
