Offered for auction is a rare Minolta F.Rokkor-QF 195mm f/6.5 lens, originally manufactured for high-resolution fax machines and photocopiers. These optics are now valued by large format photographers and experimental creatives for their excellent image circle and distinctive rendering.

This lens is confirmed to cover 8x10 large format, and may cover up to 11x14 at closer focusing distances. It has a smooth helicoid for focusing and a fixed aperture. The glass is clear and clean with no fungus, haze, or scratches.

* Aperture fixed (no internal iris)

Technical details:

* Focal length: 195mm
* Maximum aperture: f/6.5 (fixed)
* Designed for industrial imaging
* Thread mount approx 63.5 mm

Adaptation:
Can be adapted for mirrorless digital cameras with a custom or helicoid adapter (Sony E, Nikon Z, Canon RF, Fuji X, Micro Four Thirds). Also suitable for large format field cameras and creative DIY optical setups.

Target audience:
Collectors, tinkerers, and experimental photographers seeking a rare lens with unique rendering for video or large sensor formats will find this item especially appealing.
