[pure-silver] My first post

Hi, 

this is my first post to the list though it's some time back when I started
reading tons of very useful and helpful messages found here.

I'm an argentinean photographer working in Buenos Aires city and as I've
just got a new old Imagon lens I've never worked with I'd like to hear
others in case some of you have some first hand experiences with the Imagon
lens. 

Mine is a 250 mm coming with three disks to slip on the front of the lens
and a 4X neutral density filter. Everything in a box and the whole is made
by Rodenstock. 

One thing I'm afraid I'm not getting is that the lens does have an iris and
an iris lever which works very smoothly though there's no scale at that.

This lens is intended to be a soft lens though it behaves in a special way,
the softer image produced by the holes present in those disks superimpose to
the sharper one instead of those regular portrait lenses that actually
soften the whole image, no sharpness at all present when working with them.

Only thing I can add now is that it comes mounted on a Compound shutter with
speeds ranging from 200th to 1 sec plus B and T settings.

Any comment will be strongly appreciated.

TIA
