Vintage Kodak Ektanon 38mm f/2.5 Lens

One of the most satisfying things about vintage camera gear is that even the lens barrels look engineered rather than merely manufactured.

This silver Eastman Kodak Ektanon lens is clearly marked 38mm f/2.5 and Made in U.S.A. by Eastman Kodak Co., Rochester. The barrel has multiple knurled control rings, aperture markings and a distance scale measured from the film plane. Its exact original camera or cine application has not been confirmed, so I am listing the specifications that are actually visible rather than inventing compatibility.

A handsome piece of Kodak photographic history for a collector, display or specialist restoration project.

Condition: Vintage used condition with scratches, scuffs, oxidation and age-related marks. Optics and mechanical operation have not been professionally tested. Mount/application is not confirmed. Sold untested.
