Here's a test of an 18mm Cooke Speed Panchro I'm selliing.

I have a full set but thought everybody would want to see what a old Cookes look like on a 35mm adapter.

HVX200/Letus Ultimate
Preset 56k on camera

f4.6 on Cooke
 
Nice and flatteringly warm. How far did you have to zoom in on the HVX to clear the portholing?
 
I also noticed your test of a Zeiss 16mm distagon. How far did you need to zoom on this one? I've often though of picking one of them up to complement my set of Lomos.
 
THose tests were quick and I don't really know.. I do knot that I was not zoomed in all the way.
The Zeiss did seem to porthole slightly more than the Cooke but that's a 2mm wider than the Cooke.

But my 17mm Nikon also portholes.

On my Letus 20mm is where I don't see any portholing.

The wide shots are zoomed in just enough to go past the black frame of the Letus.

21-22 on a HVX

Most likely 26-28 to get rid of the portholing.
