I bought this yesterday for a few bucks. I haven't done anything to adapt it, just held it in front of a Minolta bellows on the A7.

Double Gauss type very likely.
How big is it ?

It's a decent size. The glass is perfect. Below is the lens next to a Canon 50 1.8 for scale.





It seems to have some nice qualities. I also picked up a Benoist Berthiot 115/2.4 neo-cinestar. They came out to about 8 bucks each, so I figured it would be okay to pick them up for experimentation. I just started reading about different ways people have converted and adapted projector lenses.

This was my favorite capture while I was wandering around holding the lens to the end of the bellows. If I ever make a horror movie this will be the poster (she's only yawning Smile

Nice shots. Is it possible to focus infinity on DSLR?

I can get the lens to focus about four-five feet with the Bellows fully retracted.
