Huge H Chretien Hypergonar Hi-Fi-2 Anamorphic Société Technique Lens

typical vintage condition for this lens, elements riddled with fungus but bright enough and this is the best example I've had. Take care if you are thinking to dismantle to clean - anamorphic elements must be replaced exactly as originally placed - imagining each element has a 12 o'clock position that must remain how it is for use, obviously have to be right way round too. I'd not bother with that sort of clean. Much of the white on the lens body round the focus is tape residue where a former owner held it in fixed perfect position for their particular set-up.
