tom lombard Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 (edited) Mount end looks odd to me. Missing something? Special purpose? What does the Hi-Fi indicate? Don't have it in my hands yet but should before end of the year. Edited December 20, 2017 by tom lombard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volker Bendt Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Might be the lens of a 8mm film projector. Volker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Dom Jaeger Posted December 21, 2017 Premium Member Share Posted December 21, 2017 (edited) Hi-Fi were projector lenses for Bolex projectors. That one comes from a Super 8 cartridge projector: http://www.bolexcollector.com/projectors/multimatic.html They have no iris or focus mechanism, not much use for filmmaking.

tom lombard Posted December 21, 2017 Author Share Posted December 21, 2017 Cool! So I have a ten dollar curiosity to put in the closet with the rest of them :) I will have to figure out a way to take some footage thru to first just as a challenge. Thanks.
