Taika, Japan. Taiyokoki Co Ltd, Japan. Talbot, Fox. Talbot, Walter, Berlin Taika, Japan. Super Cinconar f3.4 200mm: It seems this was the same as the TeleRokunar (Modern Photo. 01/1964). Super Harigon f1.2 58mm for Exakta, in black finish, brown coated, reported at No111,08x approx., and made to fit on the outer bayonet of the Varex Exakta camera. Taisei Kogaku: The makers name on the Tamron lens below. They are noted for the following also: Taikor f3.5 45mm Terionon f3.5 45mm on Super Westomat 35a. Taiyokoki Co Ltd, Japan. They are noted for a Lausar f3.5/2.5cm on a Viscawide ST-D camera. Talbot, Fox. His initial cameras were surprisingly small and it is said that he used a 2in microscope lens of unknown source on some of them. Talbot, Walter, Berlin, Germany. The lens on these "Invisible" cameras was an f5.5 Anastigmat of anonymous source. The camera was made in small numbers for many years roughly WW1 to mid interwar, so the lenses might have come from many makers of movie lenses. Romaine-Talbot q.v. Tamron Co Ltd, or Taisei Kogaku, Tamron Bdg, 17-11 Takinogawa 7-chome, Kita-ku, Tokyo, Japan. At this time the cable addresss was Tamrontaisei Tokyo. Surprisingly, no catalogue was available here, and this entry will be completed in the next edition. One important feature was the adaptamatic series with a unique adapter range for most SLR's. Also the use early on of matched extenders in the twin and converto Tamrons. These really are Landmarks, though perhaps modest ones, and were the sort of real novelties which deserve to be looked for. Tamron stated they produced all their lenses themselves. (Blackman, Amateur Photo 04/10/1978 p116) Early Lenses: Extenders Converto Tamron with extender. Tamron seem to have started these extenders with the f2.8/f5.6 135/225mm which was rated as "outstanding" by Modern Photo (04/1963, 05/1964) shown as Tam 001, where the shaded part is the removable extender section. It is not too common in the UK as it was early in the period when foreign imports were freed, and from experience few retain their extenders as they were a unit screwed behind the prime lens with the camera adapter then screwed on the rear. Thus users stored the lens as the 135 with the rear M42 or Minolta etc. adaptor fitted and the extender was a rather featureless black tube with 1:5.5 225mm engraved on it but the purpose was obscure. Two of those seen were in M42 screw mount. (The mount seems to be a normal T-mount but with a c41mm fine thread inserted where the keeper ring is normally present on purchase and this is normally a reject item. Thus the shop could sell any T-mount by fitting it over the adaptor thread in the lens as supplied and the T-mount then could be ignored by the user until the camera was changed.) The lens seems to be all air spaced, at S. The converter seems to be 3g/2c and this one has gathered quite a lot of dust internally. The adaptor protrudes in front of the extender by some 7mm and is well forward of the camera flange. The lenses seen in UK were Nos 374,27x, and 375,77x in M42 and No371,85x in Minolta. It was sold in the UK as the Twin-Tele f2.8 135-225mm and listed by Hanimex in May 1964 at £29.97 approx. Fitted to a Canon, the image seemed to be really sharp and contrasty, but the f5.5 makes it rather slow except in good light. Fig 008 053 Tamron 2x Converto Tamron f2.8/135mm at No375,772 and Twin Tele Tamron f4.5/135mm dismantled. Twin-Tele The early examples are marked as Twin Tele instead of Converto Tamron but seem to be the same lens with the same front curve. Twin Tamron with extender. This was a smaller item at f4.5/f7.7for 135/225mm in a case with the multiplier. It may have sold better in the UK at a lower price but is slower and here the adaptor certainly went between the mount and the camera flange making it slower to use. But the unique thread and case to keep it in means that the components are more often kept together for sale today. It was seen at No 51,56x. This was also listed in May 1964 and curiously was almost the same price at £19.95 even though it was slower, and had a slightly more limited focussing range to 6ft. The attraction may have been lightness for outdoor use. (see Fig above) Tamron Nestar f6.9 400mm This was a collapsible 4 glass lens with adaptors for most makes, at a modest price. (May 1966). A correspondent to Modern Photo 02/1968 p45 was told the Nestar was no longer imported but rather a plain version of the identical optic, due to diaphragm problems with the Nestar- which Modern said they had not noted. Tamron f6.9 400mm as above, plain. Tamron f7.5 400mm This was also listed May 1966, and was a plainer non-collapsible lens focussing to 28ft. Tamron Auxiliary telephoto 4x for fixed lens 35mm cameras or possible for 6x6. This was seen at No 58,69x and was a slim black and silver tube about 6in (150mm) long. These seem to have sold with an adaptor for the lens in use, often now lost or hard to identify. The lens seen had a c.33mm thread and needed to be some 15mm forward of the bayonet of the TLR. Sharpness looked to be useful and the screen was illuminated except perhaps for the very corners. It was not used so it was hard to see if it was used by focusing on the finder screen with the accessory in place on the taking lens but this seem to be true. The image with it on the finder screen is inverted. The front section focusses to 2.5m. Fig 008 051 Tamron Auxiliary 4x extender for ?6x6 TLR. A March 1968 review in Camera 35 covered Adaptamatic lenses with interchangable bayonets for automatic action, then 'new'.These were made to suit Pentax, and M42, Nikon, Minolta, Canon and Miranda at least and were made in: f4.0, 21mm (1972); f2.8, 28mm;f2.8, 35mm;f2.8, 135mm;f3.5, f3.5,200mm (1972); 200mm; f5.6, 300mm. On the whole the review was favourable, especially in view of the prices. In 1972, the list extended to include the above and a f2.8/135mm; f4.0, 70-220mm Zoom. In 1973, there was a f3.5/24mm, f4.5/200mm, and zooms of 85-205; 80-250mm as well. There were more eg at Chicago show in Modern Photo 07/1971 p47 as f1.8/35mm; f3.5/24mm; f2.5/105mm; f4.5/200mm; and f3.5/35-100mm zoom. A later list covers Adaptall lenses where there is auto exposure coupling, and it is essential to use the correct 'speed' of adaptor, ie all f2.5 lenses use an f2.5 ring and all f3.8's use an f3.8 ring, etc. Some were coded SP for super performance. At this time the prime lenses were: f3.5 17mm 104° 12g/10c f4.5 21mm in 05/1972 f2.5 24mm 84° 10g/9c f2.5 28mm 75° 7g/7c f2.8 28mm in 05/1972 r2.8 35mm in 05/1972 f2.5 90mm 27° 8g/6c f2.5 105mm This was in 05/1972, and was very compact and had 4 'elements'. f2.8 135mm in 05/1972 f3.5 135mm in 05/1972 f2.5 135mm 18° 4g/4c f3.5 200mm 12° 5g/5c f5.6 300mm 8° 6g/5c f5.6 350mm 7.3° 7g/4c f8.0 500mm 5° 7g/4c There was a steady decrease in the single focus lenes later as the zooms replaced them and one list has: f3.5/17mm 12g/10c f2.5/24mm 10g/9c f2.5/28mm 7g/7c f2.5/90mm 8g/6c f2.5/135mm 4g/4c f3.5/200mm 5g/5c f5.6/300mm flat field tele-macro to 1.4m focus. 6g/5c design. f5.6/350mm 7g/4c mirror f8/500mm 7g/4c mirror and 2x extender of 6 glass in 5 components. also Zooms in: 24-48mm at f3.5-3.8, 10g/9c, 28-50mm at f3.5-4.5, 9g/9c, 35-70mm at f3.5-4.5, 7g/7c, 35-80mm at f2.8-3.8,9g/8c, 70-150mm at f3.5, 13g/10c, 70-210mm at f3.5-f4, 16g/15c, 80-210mm at f3.8-f4, 13g/10c, 75-250mm at f3.8-f4.5, 13g/10c, 70-350mm at f4.5, 15g/13c, 200-500mm at f6.9, 14g/8c, also 70-220; 80-250; and 200-500mm in 1971. In May 1972, there were f2.8/28mm f2.8/135mm and f3.5/200mm with auto iris. Later Lenses This is only a small part of the list. f4.5 21mm "new", budget specification in 11/1968. f2.5 105mm in Adaptomatic mount. f5.6 350mm mirror. f8.0 500mm mirror. A Tel-Macro was reviewed favourably as a specialist tool in B.J.P. 13/07/1979 p663. It focusses to 1:3 ratio. Aspherics came in August 1992, with a review of a f2.8 35-105mm zoom with one plastic element supported- on-glass aspheric element and a note in Am.

ROMER George Eastman House and International Museum of Photography and Film All photographers work today with historical perspective. Th ey know that the technology they use has an origin in the distant past. Th ey know photography has progressed and transformed over time, and they believe the current system of photography must be superior to that of the past. Th ey are sure they will witness further progress in photography. Th ese are the lessons of history understood by all, and none need inquire any further in order to photograph. Yet photography has a very rich and complex history, which has hidden within it the answers to the fundamentally difficult questions: “What is photography?” and “What is a photo- graph?” All true photographers should be able to answer these questions for themselves and for others. To do so, they must make deep inquiry into the history of photography. Recognition of the importance of history to the under- standing of photography is evidenced in the title and content of the very first manual of photography published in 1839, Th e History and Description of the Process of the Daguerreotype and Diorama.

    Dacora, Dacora Werk, Munchen, Germany. Dignar f2.8 45mm It is a triplet, at least on the 1958 version. Color Subitar f2.8 45mm on Dacora CC in the early 1960's. Dignar F4.5 on Dacora Record, about 1954. Dacora Anastigmat f6.3 75mm There was also a f3.5 version. Dacora Achromat This was the low price option on the Digna and Color-Digna. Color Subitar f2.8 45mm This was fitted on many models in early 1960's. It may mark the beginning of the use of rare earth glass? These lenses seem to have been fitted to all their cameras in the 1950's, and were commonly in UK shop windows at the time. Later they seem to have used lenses from Rodenstock, such as Trinon Lanthan on the Super Dignette 500 SR and also from ISCO. Daguerre, France. His choice of the achromatic meniscus was a major factor in the early success of photography. During the development he was in contact with Chevalier regarding lenses, and after the launch, the main concern of users was the long exposures needed, up to 15min or more. These were reduced by the use of mixed halides, where Goddard (UK) and Claudet were involved, as well as probably workers in Austria. After the process was published, Petzval was asked in Austria to design a faster lens and came up with the Portrait lens, f3.7 in place of the former meniscus lenses at f11 or so. The combination of these improvements gave some 1000x increase in speed. The announcement of the process was Jan 1839, detailed in August 1839 and Goddard introduced bromine with the iodine in 1840.

  • UCA, Flensburg, Germany. Vallantin, Op(Ticie)
    UCA, Flensburg, Germany. They are mainly known as the source of the scarce Ucaflex, with at least 2 lenses. Unalux f1.9, 5cm at No100,78x. also reported with: Elolux f1.9/50mm. Vallantin, Op(ticie)n, Paris. This was noted on a substantial (c.80mm front glass) Petzval lens also marked Mon Cle de N. B. Delahaye where the latter may be the owner or vendor. It is fitted with Waterhouse stops, just possibly after sale, since when bought the rack drive overlapped the engraving making it hard to read. The lacquer layer was very thin on this item. It was not numbered. Another was noted at auction on a 7.5x7.5in wet plate camera. This was engraved as No308x, "Vallantin Opn., de 1840 a 1856, Ctre des ateliers de Mr. Lerebours, Paris." He also made a pair of small brass meniscus stereo lenses at No2,231 on a 8x5in Ross camera noted at auction. Varimex, Poland They were noted for an Emitar f4.5/45mm No18,49x on a blue Alfa 35mm camera. Varioprox, Japan This will be a trade name rather than a maker and was noted on a variable close-up lens No664017 (?April 1966?) probably using 2 lenses at varying separation to focus another to 1ft. Black finish with c.54mm thread at the front. V.E.F., Poland. also see Minox for Valsts Electro-Techniska Fabrik, Riga, Latvia The original lens was the: Minostigmat f3.5/15mm on original stainless steel Minox. (One source says Minostigmatic). C.C.Vevers, Leeds, Eng(lan)d.
