DISSECTION

two lenses dissected this morning. Of the two, the nikon 35mm prime lens gave the most promising lense! also salvaged parts to use in the making of a simple spring loaded shutter. thanks Japheth Lim for the glasses!

looks like it contains 2 glass elements, did a quick test and the focal point turned out to be at 150mm. Exactly the focal length i was looking for, the image circle is bigger than a singular element, this is going to be an excellent portrait lens!
