I wonder what something like this 100mm diameter 100mm focal length lens would do. I calculate it would be an f1, if you could figure out a way to mount it without stopping it down.

I bet it would be soft and colorful.

That linked lens is actually a reducing lens and not a magnifying lens so it wouldn’t work.

I'm not sure this one would work with a bellows or helicoid 50m focal length 100mm diameter double convex.

In my experience cheaper is better. As long as it's glass.
