Hi Guys, (First post here!)

I found a P. Angenieux lens on a flea market (see photos) and although I did not know the lens, I new the name and bought it for 5 euros (greetings from germany Smile). I however did not found anything about this lens online, like nothing at all. It also looks like it is just a part of a lens. I contacted Angenieux on instagram and they could not help me out either. its serial number is 1400913 so according to this previous post on MFlenses it should be from 1974. [http://forum.mflenses.com/angenieux-lenses-by-serial-number-t10297.html].

Would really love to know more about it!

Thanks in advance!

Marco

1rst post image cannot appear, spam prevention
nice find, and cheap Very Happy
I guess it either xray lens, TV lens, or projector lens
have you tried to freelensing it? to measure flange distance. if it so close i bet it's xray lens, or TV lens ( i have fujinon 100/0,95 TV lens)

Hi Iaza,

I just googled everything you said but still unable to find this specific lens. But it does looks like a xray projection lens since they are ultra fast. This one is also ultra fast for its given focal length. What can I do with it? Or is there a market for these type of lenses? And can I open it and maybe like clean it (like I know how to deconstruct vintage lenses but is there something about xray that makes this impossible (coating wise or something))

Thanks in advance!

Marco

I have never seen one before. Being Angenieux, it is worth something, no matter what. My guess also is that it is an x-ray lens. It should be no problem to remove the front retaining ring and take out the front element(s) for cleaning. Nothing special about x-ray lenses. Many x-ray lenses have a very short flange distance and/or limited image circle. I would freelens it by holding it in front of a camera body and seeing how it focuses and how large the image circle is. Would love to see some shots with it.
