Talk:Heliar

Is the following of much value? "Voigtländer used the lens in the way Zeiss used the Tessar; it was the lens fitted to most of the company's high-specification cameras for many years."--SoundOptics (talk) 15:10, 16 September 2012 (PDT)

The lens design is more relevant: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heliar http://www.apug.org/forums/archive/index.php/t-26198.html--SoundOptics (talk) 15:10, 16 September 2012 (PDT)

Can't access the Notes section for editing. would like to add: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heliar http://www.antiquecameras.net/heliarlenses.html--SoundOptics (talk) 15:10, 16 September 2012 (PDT)

The text of notes is embedded in the article at the point where each note is referred from, and you edit them there. To add a new note, decide where in the body text you want the note to appear, and add the text and link you want between <ref> and </ref>. The Notes section itself usually only contains '<references/>', which displays all those notes in the finished article. See Help:Editing#Notes

I think that sentence is of value (but I would - I wrote it, I think) so of course I vote to keep it. By all means add whatever you have on the design, but I think the comparison to the Tessar as a commercial product may help a reader who doesn't know Voigtländer (as I don't, really). --Dustin McAmera (talk) 15:28, 16 September 2012 (PDT)
