I am looking to buy a (second) Sankor 16D anamorphic lens so that I can match lenses on two matching projectors. (Yes, I know am a bit of a pedant!! [Smile]

). This lens has a 52mm diameter rear barrel. I would be happy to consider an equivalent lens (i.e. with a 52mm rear barrel) such as a Kowa. If anybody has one they would be willing to sell, I would be very pleased to hear from them. Thanks and best wishes.

Robert,
I have a Kowa 16 lens you may be interested in.. it's a 16A with a B&H rear adapter flange of 54mm nominal OD (across the screw thread). Easy enough to turn the adapter down to 52 mm when it's off the lens.
Email me... blagdonian (at) btinternet (dot) com for further information and photos?

Martin.

Martin. I greatly appreciate your very speedy response to my posting, but as I understand it the Kowa 16A is a small barrel lens. It is the larger 52mm barrel lens I need because it will be working with a Bauer Vario zoom projection lens.
