JML 10mm f/1.3 on E-bay

I came across this JML lens for sale on e-bay last night. Used for $20US.

It has a focal length of 10mm and maximum aperture of f/1.3. Would that be the equivalent of a 20x 0.37 lens? That would make it very similar to that JML objective lens that is currently being evaluated by a few of our members. Here and here.

I thought this might be of interest to someone.

CheerS!

I feel this lens is similar to my C mount lens . I have some C-mount lens and they need to work inverted. But never I have achieved a good result with these lens.

Thanks Soldevilla. What ever that lens was it it now sold. If someone from this community bought it I would be interested in seeing some results. Just wondering if this JML lens matches the Holy Grail of macro lenses, the JML 21mm lens, in performance.

I'll stick my Mits for now.
