Does anyone know anything about a Rodenstock-Ysarex 150mm 4.5 lens. It came on a Graflex Centruy 4X5 that I reciently purchased but I have seen it advertised as a Graflex XL lens. Any info would be appreciated.

Unfortunately I don't know that much either, except my own should be manufactured in the mid-sixties, and that it's pretty sharp, although a thirty-something years old lens isn't comparable to a new lens.

It don't have any idea what kind of lens design it is.

It was probably bought new with the Arca-Swiss I have. It has a Compur shutter.
