In a box of stuff from a flea market, I came upon a Wollensak Velostigmatic Wide-Angle Series III, f9.5, 8X10. Ser. No 242358. It's in a Betax #3 shutter that seems to want to work. Anybody know anything about this?
Thanks,
Don

Kingslake states in Handbook of photography, that is has a coverage of 90 degrees, so that would put it equal to a Protar V but 2 stops faster. If it's the same formula lens it would work best at f22 or beyond.
