The Trinar was a lens made by Rodenstock. It was made as well for cameras as for enlargers. It was obviously offered for cameras as normal lens, and despite of its three-element construction it was featured almost like a "prime lens", meaning a well imaging quality. Some say it was better than Schneider's Radionar.[1] Others say it's sharp just in the frame center and maybe better for BW-photography.[2]
