It's been awhile since I've used this lens, but most of the time they
go for really cheap on ebay. You can find these attached to a Ricoh
Singlex SLR or the Sears equivalent. This is a "fashion" photo of my
Agfa Isolette 4.5, hope to have some BW pics very soon:

Attila, it is night now, will do so tomorrow in good natural light. Above
pic was shot at about f3, no flash. This lens is very cheap, but does a
decent job in low light settings. I have two of these...

Attila, if these are unusable, let me know and I'll try again:







This is my second copy of the lens, both are identical in every way
except this one is badged "Auto Reflex" instead of "Auto Sears". All
pics were taken with the Auto Sears lens including these:







A little more camera p0rN with a proper tripod to display the cam. First
2 camera pics at f4 and the last at f8.

This is a great lens! Definitely underrated!
Attila, if I didn't have one, I would buy your copy (but I have found one last year at a camera fair).

Attila, one of my lenses was actually free. I bought the lens and the
Ricoh Singlex, replaced the lightseals, cleaned it up with new battery,
and sold the body for $25 on ebay. I bought both originally for $21,
but seller had lousy pictures on his auction.

Just messing around with the lens with the shortest Zeiss M42 extension
tube:



Shot outside in the wind and light changing rapidly when the clouds
moved over the sun. Little CA, should've used a lens hood, too.
