I've seen a similar arrangement with two sets of aperture blades on some Russian lenses, notably Helios-40. I, too, think it's excessive overengineering; it seems the designers used this arrangement to provide for linear movement of aperture control ring (that is, to keep ring travel the same between, say, f/2-2.8 and f/11-16). |
I briefly had a Zeiss Planar 110mm f/2 for Hasselblad with a double set of aperture blades. |
