I got this lens to play for a while and sell it later.

Any experience?

No experience, but I wish I could afford it !

Those things can be pretty expensive.

It should be good for 5x7 plates (13x18 cm) format.

They are supposed to be excellent for large format portraits wide open.

The Heliar is a classic portrait lens, open a bit soft, stepped down very sharp. Fetches still some good money.
