Haiou, China. Ibn-El-Haitam, Halina, UK. Hall, Subsidiary Haiou, China. This seems to be one of the few Chinese lenses with a name to classify; Haiou f2.0 58mm on Seagull, a copy of the Minolta. Ibn-el-Haitam, The list does not normally include pre-photographic lens data but one reader insisted el-Haitam must be included as the first known man to calculate mathematically the design and behaviour of light in a lens. He lived about year1000 ie 1000 years ago by current reckoning. Halina, UK. Agents and importers of photographic equipment with their name on it. Haking Industries of Hong Kong are or were one of the biggest camera makers and Halina was the brand name. In 1978, the B.J.P. 07/07/1978 p587 says most were low price 110 cameras for sale as Halina and under many other names. Also the Halina 700B for 35mm with f2.8/40mm lens and 110 Halina with f5.6/24mm were noted. Halina f3.5 80mm on Halina TLR (c.1952) Halina Anastigmat f2.8 40mm in 04/1972 on a Halina 500 pocket size 35mm. Halina Anastigmat f3.5 45mm on Halina 35X. Fig 022 018 Halina Anastigmat f3.5/45mm on Halina camera. There is some sort of tradition that the glasses for some Hong Kong cameras were ground in Wales by Chance and sent to Hong Kong to be assembled. But this is certainly not proven. Hall, subsidiary of A.G.I., Croydon, UK. Unimar f4.5 105mm on A.R.L.Mk11. (1945 approx.) Hall were lens makers before they amalgamated with A.G.I. but there seems to be no trace of their former products now. Hall, Chester Moor, (1703-1771) Hall discovered the way to correct colour in lenses by combining flint with high colour dispersion with crown glass with lower dispersion to get a achromatic pair. Sadly in 1733 he delegated the making of the two glasses to 2 different makers for secrecy- who then both delegated the jobs to George Bass, who realized they had a common curve and the reason. Hall got his 65mm dia. 50cm lens pair, but the secret went on to Dollond (1706-1761) who made a lens but with better spherical correction, and patented the design. Thus for many years Hall's work was forgotten. Hall, as Photo Hall, Paris. Photo Hall Anastigmats were listed on a Caillon Bioscope Stereo in 1912, and on a reflex in 1914. It may be that these were bought-in for a shop to sell. Hama, UK. They supplied two portrait lenses for SLR's in T2 mounts. Portragon f4.0 100mm This seems to be identical with the Spiratone f4.0 100mm in T- mount for most SLR's normally sold in USA. It was a popular and interesting lens, but the absence of an iris meant there was no way of controlling the sharpness and depth of field. Focus 0.9m to infinity. Soft Focus f2.0 100mm no details. Hamaphot, Monheim, Germany. They made a series of Hexi cameras, and therefore used the trade name Hexar on the lenses. They came as mainly f11/75mm lenses but other types were made eg f8/6.5cm but these may have not been Hexars. Hanimex, UK and Australia. It was named from HAnnes IMport EXport. It seems this firm was founded by a German Jack Hannes, who went to to Sydney, Australia and worked to a motto "Little fish are sweet" while later running a low profile concern with an office in Regent St London, and selling lenses for various cameras by 1969. They supplied several series of lenses for SLR's including a 300mm f4.0 which owners respected and liked. They may have derived something from Makinon, but that is conjecture. A review in Camera 35 April/May 1969 p44 lists f2.8, 28mm; f2.8, 35mm; f2.8,135mm; f3.5, 135mm; f3.5, 200mm; f4.5, 200mm; at the time these were 'new' in M42 mounts only but other mounts were due. By Amateur Photo. 24/06/1989, they were "a complete range" and the review covers 4 zooms and a 500mm mirror. A May 1967 list has both auto and non-auto (preset) lenses: Automatic Iris: Hanimex Auto f2.8 28mm 7 glass Pentax, Minolta, Nikon, Canon mounts. Hanimex Auto f2.8 35mm 6 glass same Hanimex Auto f2.8 135mm 5 glass same The design of this specification may have changed as a 07 June 1967 advert. by R.G.Lewis (Am Photo p21) shows a section of a 2+2+1+1+1 ie 7glass/5component lens. This seems to have given really good performance. Hanimex Auto f3.5 135mm 4 glass Pentax, Minolta, Nikon. Hanimex Auto f4.5 200mm 4 glass Pentax, Minolta, Nikon, Canon mounts. NB These were in fixed mounts. Non-Auto Lenses: Hanorama f5.6 7mm Wide angle, this may be a fish but it is not listed as such. Hanimex f3.0 28mm 7 glass Interchangeable, most mounts. Hanimex f2.8 28mm in 1969 list. Hanimex f2.8 35mm 6 glass same. Hanimex f3.5 35mm 5 glass same. Sold with hood. Hanimex f4.0 100mm 3 glass Pentax and Exakta only. Hanimex f2.8 105mm 4 glass Interchangeable, most mounts. Hanimex f2.8 135mm 5 glass same, most mounts. Hanimex f3.5 135mm 4 glass same, most mounts. Hanimex f3.5 180mm 4 glass same, most mounts. Hanimex f4.5 200mm 4 glass same, most mounts. Hanimex f5.5 300mm 4 glass same, most mounts. Hanimex f6.3 400mm 3 glass same, most mounts. Hanimex f8.0 600mm 3 glass same, most mounts. Mirror f8 500mm Mirror f11 750mm (This is a very unusual focal length.) Hanimex Zoom f4.0 90-230mm Mounts listed included: Thread mounts (These will be M42) for Pentax, Pentacon, Praktica, Edixa, Contax S, Yashica, Miranda (This just may be M39), and M39 for Leica and Zenith with different registers(!) Bayonet mounts for Exakta, Topcon, Nikon, Canon, Minolta, Miranda, Yashica, Singlex, Argus, Petriflex, Olympus PenF 1/2 frame. Hanimar f2.8 35mm This was auto iris for M42 and seems to be still another series. Martin Hanke & Co, Monheim/Schwaben, Germany. Tricomat f6.3 65mm A 3 glass lens on a Hexi 6x6. Hanovia, Newark, New Jersey, USA. Kalosat f4.5, f5.6, f6.5. These were simple meniscus lenses made of fused silica, known as spectral diffusion lenses. (Brit. Pat. 177,720/1921) They were soft focus, but the low dispersion of silica means that negligible separation of the visual and photographic foci occurs of 0.5% compared with 2.5% for normal glass lenses. The designer was Dr H. D. Power, and he reported on a lens of f4.0 4.5in focus and says it works to focus. (B.J.A, 1923, p304, also B. J. Photo., 1922, p281; B.J.A. 1921, p329). Kilmer reported on a f4.5 4.5in lens in Camera Craft Nov. 1919, Photo Era 04/1920, and another source says that two series were made: Series 1, f4.5: Series 11, f6.3. Hare, UK. Hare was a leading camera maker, but an early 7.5x5in Stereo carried lenses marked "City Rapid Landscape" at No164x (2x) and these may be meniscus type. Harrison and Schnitzer, New York, USA. Successor R.Morrison, 1864. Harrison was a Daguerrotypist with a knowledge of optics and he started in the late 1840's to make lenses in the USA, and cameras which were cheaper than imports and were of good quality. Thus he was probably the first photographic lens maker outside Europe, and was a very early one in any sense. During the 1850's, all sales were through Scovill's. Then there was a merger with Anthony's works. And Harrison's Globe lens was an international success, and the firm was sold to Nelson Wright, when Harrison became the optical supervisor. Incidentally the name Globe was valid as the outside surfaces were all on the surface of one sphere. It gave a new low in distortion, but had severe spherical aberration and could only be used stopped well down (f36-f72). The outer glass was crown n'H= 1.53, the inner flint n'H= 1.60, each pair being achromatic. The angle covered was 75°. Use 10cm for 12x14cm plates. Notice that this was actually slower than any meniscus lens sold. Also Kingslake quotes lens production as 8,800 ordinary lenses and 307 Globes by May 1863, and sadly Harrison died in 1864. After this Morrison (1836-1888) ran the works and simplified the Globe design. Meniscus: like half a Globe. This has been illustrated but is thought not likely to have been used alone. (Traill- Taylor, p45) Layout Har001. Globe Lens (1860) for 80°, for use at f30 or less. Patent 17 of 27/06/1862, with J.Schnitzer. This lens was in production for a long time, the small aperture covering up the limitations in the design. It threw a central flare spot in the original form, but this could be removed by decreasing the separations of the glasses slightly. (Har002). This may be a Landmark. For details, see Van Monckhoven, p128 and also entry under Gasc above. It has a good claim to be the very first anastigmat due to the design where thelight enters and leaves at right angles to the glass surfaces. Flick Iris This type of iris has both pins near together and outboard of the glass, so a small movement of the control ring closes them down; accurate work is needed to make it but it is now the norm on all auto SLR lenses.

    Carl Zeiss, 32, Wagnergasse, Jena, Germany. ((1847) also: 29/II Dorotheen strasse 29, Berlin, Germany. (1901) and 29, Margaret St, Regent St, London W (1901) The founder, Carl Zeiss (1816-1888) was born in Weimar, the son of a cabinet maker and ivory carver. He graduated from school in 1834, qualified to be apprenticed to the Grand Dukes Instrument maker, Dr Koerner, and attended academic courses as well as working as apprentice. Next he travelled from Jan. 1838 to Oct. 1845 to study in Stuttgart, Darmstadt, Vienna, and Berlin to broaden his experience. Back at home, he studied chemistry and higher mathematics. By May 1845, he felt well enough qualified to apply to the County Administration at Weimar for permission to found "An establishment for the production of advanced mechanical devices", hoping for a relationship with the University to advance designs. Money was tight with capital of 100 Thalers (possibly £100) only, but in Nov. 1846, he opened at 7, Neugasse. It remained a small business for years, as it took some 20 years for the University relationship to be productive, and he often grew weary of the trial and error methods traditionally used in the trade. Much of the production was of microscopes- often relatively simple ones by modern standards, such as dissection viewers. Then in 1863, a young lecturer Ernst Abbe (1840-1905) joined the University to teach physics and astronomy. Zeiss approached him in 1866 for cooperation in the design of improved systems and this lead to new ideas, eg in the Abbe refractometer (1869), a comparator and a spectrometer.

  • T-Mount - Wikipedia
    4/1/2020 T-mount - Wikipedia T-mount The T-mount is a standard lens mount for cameras and other optical assemblies. The usual T-mount is a screw mount using a T-mount male 42×0.75 (42 mm diameter, 0.75 mm thread pitch) metric Type screw thread on the lens with a flange focal distance of 55 mm and a External diameter 42 mm mating female 42mm thread on a camera adapter or other optical component. This thread form is referred to as T-thread. (This Flange 55 mm should not be confused with the M42 lens mount which is also Connectors None 42 mm diameter, but has a 1 mm thread pitch. The T-thread is sometimes described as "M42x0.75," which is the usual manner in which to describe the thread.) The "T" is said to stand for Tamron or Taisei, a Japanese manufacturer that released in 1957 the first of a line of aftermarket camera lenses that fit 35 mm SLR cameras built by various manufacturers using their universal T-mount. On the first model, the mini T-mount used a M37×0.75 thread; Tamron's canonical M42×0.75 T-thread didn't appear on the market until about 1962. The company referred to it variously as a T-mount, T-thread, T-adapter, or a T-400, but not as a T-2, which is simply the name that Soligor used for its version of the T-adapter. The proprietary lens mount of each camera manufacturer was adapted to the T-mount thread with a simple adapter.

  • Lens Mount and Flange Focal Distance
    This is a page of data on the lens flange distance and image coverage of various stills and movie lens systems. It aims to provide information on the viability of adapting lenses from one system to another. Video/Movie format-lens coverage: [caveat: While you might suppose lenses made for a particular camera or gate/sensor size might be optimised for that system (ie so the circle of cover fits the gate, maximising the effective aperture and sharpness, and minimising light spill and lack of contrast... however it seems to be seldom the case, as lots of other factors contribute to lens design (to the point when sometimes a lens for one system is simply sold as suitable for another (eg large format lenses with M42 mounts for SLR's! and SLR lenses for half frame). Specialist lenses (most movie and specifically professional movie lenses) however do seem to adhere to good design practice, but what is optimal at any point in time has varied with film stocks and aspect ratios! ] 1932: 8mm picture area is 4.8×3.5mm (approx 4.5x3.3mm useable), aspect ratio close to 1.33 and image circle of ø5.94mm. 1965: super8 picture area is 5.79×4.01mm, aspect ratio close to 1.44 and image circle of ø7.043mm. 2011: Ultra Pan8 picture area is 10.52×3.75mm, aspect ratio 2.8 and image circle of ø11.2mm (minimum). 1923: standard 16mm picture area is 10.26×7.49mm, aspect ratio close to 1.37 and image circle of ø12.7mm.

The Scheimpfl ug mount can be rotated in order to align tilt axis. The Scheimpfl ug angle is changed by tilting the camera lens with respect version3 to the sensor plane. Features large Scheimpfl ug angle up to 20° Scheimpfl ug rotation axis aligned with camera chip = image center does not move when changing the Scheimpfl ug angle free orientation of the camera for oblique Scheimpfl ug angles wide internal aperture for large camera chips very compact design Smaller cameras can be supported directly by the Scheimpfl ug adapter, to simplify the alignment for oblique angles. The Scheimpfl ug mount version3 is especially designed to be used in Tomographic PIV sys- tems, Stereoscopic PIV systems, StrainMaster 3D and other LaVision Imaging products, which operate with 2 or more cameras. Tomographic PIV or 3D StrainMaster systems often need large Scheimpfl ug angles from oblique viewing points. The Scheimpfl ug mount version3 allows maintaining Scheimpfl ug angles up to 20° from any camera orientation without signifi cant loss of light intensity due to its free space internal design. Even at largest angles the internal obstruction is reduced to a minimum. Highspeed cameras with their large CMOS chip dimensions profi t from the large internal aperture of the Scheimpfl ug adapter.
