Hi folks.

I'm after a 20 mm or Zoom lens in good condition to fit a 2592 Bell & Howell projector.

Can you help me?.

Cheers

Hi Ferran
did you get a B&H zoom lens yet?

I have 2 here that are available.
There is a Silvery plated one & an All Black version.
email me direct if you want to discuss it.

Out of curiosity, what benefit would a lens like this provide?

A 20mm prime lens would give a bigger image size compared to a standard 50mm lens at the same projector to screen distance.
Also a prime lens should give a sharper definition than a zoom one.
