I have no idea about This lens: Wilon "Will Wetzlar 135mm f4.5". (Any information will be good to have)
Its M39 mount lens. I got this cheaply with M39 bellows (the reason of buying).


Along with bellows, got Acura (Leica 39mm screw mount) Visoflex Flip Mirror System.

I am not sure whether the lens is macro or enlarger lens.

Captured with M39 (39mm) Bellow Wilon "Will Wetzlar 135mm f4.5" lens, used with full extended bellow.



Captured with M39 (39mm) Bellow Wilon "Will Wetzlar 135mm f4.5" lens, used with full opened bellow. Used 37mm ext tubes along with Bellows.

(wide open @f4.5)

Seems a nice lens I would take it for a minute and I saw your bid and left it.

Ah thanks...


poilu: Valentine's day... the subject was there (with spent money), why to go outside in cold weather... I am liking this lens...

But not able to find much details... seems like enlarger lens, as the quality drops with distance.. and useless after 10-15m...

Hi!

These lenses are nice to play with. I's got a Will (Wetzlar) Wilon 4.5/105:

And I use it in my "home-made-lens-barrel". My copy is really OK, even at distant subjects.
As far as I know Will Wetzlar has produced lenses for enlargers, projectors, film cameras, microscopes and some for medium and large format cams.

It is an enlarger lens manufactured by Wilhelm Will, Wetzlar-Nauborn, Germany.
