[rollei_list] OT Soft Focus Lenses (was Re: Scanner advice needed, please)

Richard,

A number of years ago, a photographer friend of mine obtained
several dozen of Hurrel's LF negatives of  "unknown starlets".
They were extensively retouched.  Prints made from them were
beautiful.

I believe that the Imagon lens is the type of lens currently use
for controllable soft focus with a sharp basis.

One, but there are others. For example:

This is neither of the types Richard describes... it has two air spaced doublets
