[Lens] Petzval Lens

Is anybody here thinking about getting this steampunk lens? It looks like a lot of fun.

This lens already gives the same results and has more features plus a bigger aperture

If you can find the old version it's got a cool silver finish

Thanks for the tip. The Helios really seems to be a love it or hate it lens.

With the right subject though, the circular flares add a lovely complexity. Almost like bubbles in champagne.
