I have never seen that one before. It looks like a French version of the Century. 1.5x stretch, right? Is there a focus ring? What is your minimum focus distance? And most importantly, do you have any footage to show us?

Looks nice! Hold it in front of a lens for a test run I'd say!

pretty different looking lens.  it looks like a centurt 16:9 converter, but with a bigger squeeze ratio based on the shape of the oval view through the barrel.  it looks quite a shallow body, but the elements suggest it is deeper than the body makes it look.  also looks like there is a focus ring there too..
