| Ilex Paragon Anastigmat f4.5 lens in Ilex No. 4 Universal shutter image by Tyler Yip (Image rights) |
Ilex Manufacturing Co. was one of America's three main suppliers of lenses for view cameras. It was founded in 1910 by the former Bausch & Lomb shutter designers Rudolph Klein and Theodor Brueck. They invented a delay mechanism that made shutters working independently from climate conditions. Their lens brand was Paragon.
