>>4300235And this is with the 36" (~914mm), stopped down to around f/8-9. It's not that great but honestly I was expecting worse from an 80+ year old lens.
I took off the front element to give it a good clean out and I thought there was oil on the inside from the aperture blades, however it seems like it's actually a coating that has come away in areas, looks like it may have even had some fungus cleaned off in the past. Does it seem viable that a lens this old would have been coated?
