Advertisement Posted March 12, 2021 Posted March 12, 2021 Hi frame-it, Take a look here Hektor 125, f2.5 Canada. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
romanus53 Posted March 12, 2021 Share #2 Posted March 12, 2021 Nice lens, a little bit soft wide open and sharp stopped down, has character, go and use it! The screw looks normal, mine has it too, more of the 4400 lenses were produced in WEtzlar and some in Midland. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You fix the hood with the protruding screw. The hood has a groove where the screw's head enters and when you turn the hood it is fixed. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pecole Posted March 12, 2021 Share #5 Posted March 12, 2021 Maniac, I went immediately to my collection´s archives when I saw this thread, and I discovered - or remembered if I had still memory! - that I had two following serials : 1760609 and 1760610. This adds absolutely nothing to the question : just fun. Welcome, dear visitor!

kangaroo2012 Posted March 13, 2021 Share #6 Posted March 13, 2021 I seem to remember that this was a projector lens. Walter Benser of Leica fame (in my youth) had one converted to Viso mount for portraiture. Cheers Philip Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here are photos of the Hektor 12cm-2.5 (code UFKOU) for projection I had in my collection. Welcome, dear visitor!
