Hi all,
Just to let everyone know, there has been a kickstarter project to remake the Petzval lenses for modern mounts, apparently they are being made at a Zenit factory so the optics will be quite good.

The Lomography Petzval Portrait Lens by Lomography — Kickstarter
I would be tempted to get one as a portrait lens - its an 85mm lens so would be a portrait lens for my cameras
