I supose it is an old lens. It is a big one !! But, it is not a full lens. The other side is open. I suppose to receive an other lense. A primary Like a scope ? I do not know what was the fonction of this lense. Classic projection ? Which projector ? There is inside 2 “prism”. One is manualy directional with “1X “ and ”2X” and a red dot (please see picture).

You can screw it onto whatever prime lens you normally use for scope and it should have the same effect when set to 2x.  |  IP: Logged
