Hi all

Just arrived today.
Works well, apperture works on the two lenses
Rangefinder not working because lens is not coupled...
I have read princelle's comments.. It is really well done!!!

Fred

Congrats, Fred! You even have the mask!
I had seen this lens rather on Fed 1e Berdsk, sometimes on 1d, never on a 1f.
Do you intend to try it? I would be curious to know the results.

Amitiés. Jacques.

I thought these FED Stereo things were contemporary fakes?
All I've seen look suspiciously new and there's no documentation I know of.

See here:

That's why we don't have a wiki entry on them. Or am I missing some recent discoveries?

Regards, Chris

No, no! You have not missed anything!
It's a beautiful lens, generally much too expensive for what it is really.
But if Fred could try it, just to know if it is utilizable...
As for an entry in the wiki, why not, after all? We already have Leica copies, as well!

Amitiés. Jacques.

Hi all

I think I will try this lens in the next weeks, but before, maybe I will have to clean it because there is a little haze in glasses

In fact, the Fed-Stemar is always in the wiki:
