Paillard-Bolex 70/1,6, Hifi projector lens

Bolex HiFi projection lens for 16mm Bolex projectors >Bolex S221 and S321 <
According to this source The S221 projector made in 1960s, S321 was made in 1968. so it goes for the lens, let's say it was made between 1960-1968.

Similar character with Taylor hobson 16mm projector lenses, and common C mount lenses like Cosmicar 75mm, Soligor, Elitar etc at wide open of course. I tried Kern Paillard 75/2,8  C mount lens, this lens is better.. 
At least I know two version of this lens. The other version has bigger indention on body. I dont know the difference yet. My friend has the other version. Someday I will compare both.
All shots with NEX

Leitz Hektor 10cm/2,5 Projector lens

This old projector has low contrast and saturation like common SLR lens at same era. Not so sharp at wideopen, but OOF area (bokeh) is nice to me. I have to increase saturation on my Sony NEX5 to produce nice color with it. Otherwise nice for BW shot.

Carl Zeiss Skoparex 35/3,4. Icarex BM

My lil bro got Carl Zeiss Icarex Bayonet camera set with 3 lenses. He asked me to test it. 

This is the Skoparex 35/3,4. I read that this lens was made by Voigtlander  and it famous as a decent lens.

I dont have adapter for it, so I put M39-M42 ring on it and glued it fro temporary use.

All shot at wide open.

Tested against strong light, nice flare.

Carl Zeiss Tessar 50/2,8 icarex bayonet

My lil bro got Carl Zeiss Icarex Bayonet camera set with 3 lenses. He asked me to test it. This is the tessar. 

I dont have adapter for it, so I put M39-M42 ring on it and glued it fro temporary use.

ROW Visionar 154/1,9

Very heavy lens LOL. This was the original lens,

it's hard to get infinity or even for portrait. So I had to cut the back part of the body. (around 3cm) but it need 0,5cm more to get infinity if I want to use it with Zhongyi lensturbo (EF_NEX)+helicoid adapter

For portrait range distance, this lens is sharp (keep in mind, this has no blade)
for closer distance I got glowing.

ROW Visionar 1,6/71

All shot with NEX5+ helicoid adapter

Infinity, behind curtain and window glass, wide open

Isco ultra MC 2/100 film 35/70

Isco ultra MC 2/100 - 3,94 inch film35/70  is a lovely lens. Painted in gold color, not so heavy like Visionar lenses. I guess, as newer lens with lighter material, that's good in mirroless cam.

35/70 film means that it's designed for projecting 35mm and 70mm film. 70mm film offered high resolution, but it cost higher price too. That's not important for me who use it in still image digital camera, maybe analog camera too.

Taylor, Taylor & Hobson supertal 2 inch/1,6

This 16mm film projector lens has same character like cmount lens. sharp at center and busy bokeh. It has nice pop. On Sony NEX APSC there's strong vignette on far distance. So I decided only use it in close distance.
2 inch approximate 50,8 mm. I wonder why my Dallmeyer 1,5 inch has less vignette than ths lens.

Supertal 2 inch has very short register flange, back lens almost touch NEX's sensor at infinity.
It can be used on M4/3 cam, I'll post sample later

Rodenstock Rogonar S 75/4,5

Cheap Rodenstcok enlarger lens, which performs not cheap in my opinion.
