     they  were  of  course  every lens on a cut-film camera -- either a
     press
     canera  or  a  view  --  and  they're  fine  for  their specialized
     purposes, which
     are  to  correct  perspective  distortion and to alter the plane of
     focus.
     other than that, though, they're just lenses.
     now that pictures work and birds is the apparent theme, this out my
     kitchen
     door, through two panes of glass. image obviously scaled way down.
