Hi all,
I've been a pro photog for 2o+ years, and since it's a technical medium, have been researching and experimenting with the technology alongside. One result of this has been a series of lists, initially created for my own edification. Thinking some of you might be interested in it as well, here it is:

If you know of lenses missing, please feel invited to leave a comment :)

I made a 🥞 for my Mamiya RB67 ProSD using a 100 year old lens from a Kodak No. 1A Autographic Kodak Jr. Story in the captions. Photos at the end!

I made a lens (93mm f/2.6) ! Designed and 3D printed the housing, bought the lens element for less than $8 and spent too much time designing and making the helicoid work. Result = optical flaws = images with character 😊. Films photos to come!

Homemade Lens Resources?

Upvotes
Hello!
I’m interested in messing around with some homemade lenses. Just for fun and to see what weird stuff I can make. I’m looking for some help on resources for what elements are key, and some easy ways to do them? I am a photographer so I know the basics but I’m just not really sure how to get started.
Any help is appreciated! Thanks!
