Kowa f1.3 30-70 zoom lens for Bell and Howell 16mm projectors for sale.
Nice condition, fast lens and a very versatile range.
It comes with a lens cap (not shown).
£80 plus shipping (UK only please).

Can this be used for ANY Bell & Howel or just specific models?
Any chance to use this at Elmo 16CL?

Hi Winbert not really, going up from the 40mm CL to an Eiki ( is not so easy ) to a Bell and Howell ( is very easy ).
But the other way B+H down, is only usually possible with much smaller sleeved lenses.
Great lens for that price.
PS I think this lens fits the 640 and up models.
Best Mark.

The lens will not fit the Bell & Howell 640 as this is a wooden blimp model.
The brand new series (with the dreaded worm) started with the 641. The lens will fit the 641 and all later models.
It's a great pity that Bell & Howell didn't give more thought to their model numbers at such a great change of design.

Hi David, assuming the PM was sent to me, I haven’t received anything. If you are interested please let me know ASAP as I will have to take the eBay listing down before anyone bids! Best wishes, Chris

Hi Chris,
Apart from a slightly bigger image - my current lens is far too similar - thanks for the reply.

No problem David, as you have a very similar lens you’re probably right to pass on this one.
