CCTV lens for UV?

Oh, that saves me a bundle.

 

I found a European seller, though, who offered this under the Pentax label for 999,- Euros.

I do not like these uncorrected quartz lenses. But whatever. There are a few manufacturers out there making these lenses, mostly it seems for CCTV, but not always. Sodern Cerco, Universe Kogaku ==> I've never listed them in the Sticky for various reasons. Perhaps I should at least reference them ??? If so, we would need to reference the pros & cons. Feedback welcomed on this listing topic.

Perhaps they could be listed in a section under a heading "Untested UV lenses - Described by manufacturer as designed for UV imaging, but no first-hand data available from board members on actual performance in still UV photography".

Good idea, Enrico. Thanks!

We should keep folks informed of what we know and also what we don't know.

 

(I need to get an update ready for the Lens Sticky. )
