    Crypto-gram

    I have been trying to find out what a Crypto-gram (50 or 55mm diameter) lens is and have been unsuccessful. Can anyone shed some light?

    It sounds like the kind of thing you might have gotten from a cereal box 20 years ago along with a Secret Decoder Ring. ;) While I've never heard of the "Crypto-Gram Lens," it might be some sort of Polaroid or colored filter used to selectively transmit information from suitably encoded material.

    Best regards,
    Darryl

    ...usually have a CMount or CS-Mount 7 socket which is needed for attaching the necessary high quality tele lens. 260K PDF Link (via Crypto-Gram) </B></SPAN>

    Thanks Chris. I don't think this is what my friend's customer was looking for but your guess is as good as mine.
