Ok, here we go trifox.
I'm still not sure about the infinity focus, because I had to grind the CY-adapter a few µm. Perhaps a little more will help.
This one is showing the tiny tiles from distance. (Praktica B100+Pentacon 1.8/50 on Velvia 100)
now the 3.5/15 f5
doorhandle from my car f3.5, thel hood touched almost the handle
loop in a fence f3.5
miniature latern?  f3.5
f8
f8
It shows a little CA, perhaps the adapter. Some flares, but like Orio said, its almost unavoidable and in most cases, I like it, because it's real. More on this later

THANKS CARLSSON !
WOOOOOOOWWW !!!!!
this that what I was expected !!!!!!!!!!!!
THIS IS INCREDIBLE LENS !!!!
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING EXAMPLES I NEVER EVER SEEN !!!!
many many many thanks --- one can be seen on ebay for 1400 GBP -- which is incredible price ---
much than SMC Pentax 15...
NO WORRIES regarding the CA --- LightRoom corrects it very SMOOTHLY ...
I have got Contax Distagon 4/18 -- CA is visible but -- shot on RAW and one issue I can not explain is how engineers from ZEISS can built the lenses with superb correction of chromatic aberration
I would go for this lens -- I going to be saving money for this may be one day ...
This lens must have incredible DOF ...
THANKS -- very HELPFUL!!!! AND VERY RARE EXAMPLES ...

AND sorry --- GREAT PHOTOGRAPHER
AND WOOOOOW AGAIN !!!
I am fascinating of this lens --- I download the pic with plants ---
YOU CAN LEAP INTO THIS PICTURE !!! ...
Its incredible 3D
CA issue on this lens is typical for Carl Zeiss --- nice red (mostly dark) and nice green (mostly dark) evenly split on both sides which means --- easy to eliminate in post !!!
Carl Zeiss couldn't know about fixing this issue before (on computer) --
no computers were in the period when these fascinating lenses had been produced !!!!
see this link --

uncorrected and corrected pic in LIGHTROOM -- CA almost gone ...

You are welcome! 
Indeed, it is beyond my wildest dreams. The bokeh is beyond my expectation.
I would like to test it on architectural models as well (1:50 for example).
Maybe later...
