Generated summary, 2 May 2026 — not checked by hand; prices on this page come from the sales, not from this text.

Questions

Is it usable as a normal photographic lens?

No — it is an anamorphic copying objective designed for technical reproduction, not a conventional taking lens, so its value is mainly to collectors and specialists rather than general photographers.

Why is the price so low compared to other Taylor, Taylor & Hobson optics?

Specialist copying objectives have a narrow user base and rarely fit standard camera mounts, which keeps hammer prices well below those of cinema or general-purpose TTH lenses.
