$15 Industar 50/3.5 lens

[Katastrofo]

Above price included shipping! When it arrived, I thought I'd done another
Exakta episode, the lens looked so tiny, but miraculously, it fits:





The funky pictures above were taken with this 1998 Agfa 1.2MP camera:

This is an M42 lens and very good quality, this is THE PANCAKE

I don't understand, you have attached the Industar to a compact point-and-shoot?

As I understand, the pictures of Oly+Pancake Industar were taken with the AGFA p&s camera.

Sideways prism.
Now that's stunning solution.
I was really shocked, I mean where the **** could the prism be?
All my knowledge of reflex cameras, painfully accumulated over the years, was challenged by what I saw. Well, at least I see now that I had some real reason to be astonished!!

Some people hate the looks of the "flat top" but I think it looks cool! Here
are some quick and dirty pics taken with this lens towards dusk:

first one wide open:



cat at f4.2 approximately:



and at f7.6 approximately:



I didn't do a lot of fussy processing with these, just auto-this and auto-that!

Looking at the first picture with that little lens on the e300, I have to
apologize to Orio---it does look like a point and shoot!

Makes for a trim, lightweight kit to pack around, though.

Those pics are awesome! Especially #2 - the cat. Hard to believe that such a little lens can do that

Thanks, Patrick! I'm quite pleased with this little lens. I was pretty tired
coming home from work, hope to do some more pics this weekend. I
also had in the mail, another Olympus 35RC for $25, postage included.
I think I have enough of those, now. LOL

The lens, doesn't win any awards for bokeh, but seems to be pretty
sharp.
