Kirk's Lenses

75 mm f/4.5 Rodenstock Grandagon-N

This lens is fast and relatively small, both traits needed for a wide angle lens.

It is mounted on a Tech IV recessed lens board. A recessed board is necessary to use a 75 mm lens on a Technika IV.

90 mm f/6.8 Rodenstock Grandagon-N

An excellent alternative to the ubiquitous Schneider Super Angulon.

Mounted on a Master Technika recessed lens board.

125 mm f/5.6 Fujinon-W

The 125 mm fills the gap between 90 and 150 mm much better than the more common 135 mm lens.

This Fujinon also has nearly the same film coverage as a Schneider Symmar-S 135 mm!

150 mm f/5.6 Fujinon-W

A classic lens size.

This most remarkable thing about this lens is that it has an extremely deep curvature to the front lens element.

240 mm f/9 Schneider G-Claron

The G-Claron is often overlooked for use in the field. Originally designed for process and copy work, it is apo-chromatic, light weight, and extremely sharp!

This may be my favourite lens.

 355 mm f/9 Schneider G-Claron

Even thought it is a G-Claron, this lens is definitely getting big, but not as big and heavy as an f/5.6 lens is!
