Yes Marc, the Standard New was unique from that point of view. I did not know Bertele was director of optical design for Steinheil, interesting data, thanks. All the best Carlos 2007/3/22, Marc James Small <marcsmall@xxxxxxxxxxx>:
Carlos I believe that you are saying that the Standart-Neu was unique in having a viewing lens from an outside source and I believe that this is correct. Steinheil was a magnificent firm and it is unfortunate that a family fight caused them to go out of business. Ludwig Bertele was their director of optical design during most of the 1940's.
