These lenses just arrived on their attactive EXA camera bodies. The lenses seemed in good shape although one
had a slightly stiff focus ring that was also a little bit loose and the cameras also seem to work.

Here are a few photos. Lousy weather. Contrast added in all and sharpening in first.

Yes I also like the look of the old cameras, and Exa and Exakta cameras are especially nice looking along with their lenses. I am really captivated by the mechanics of the old cameras and how they were put together in an
attractive way.
The Kiev rangefinder is also very nice looking. I hope to get one someday.
Thanks for the comments about the garden, but to me it it is quite a mess right now and I don't have time to go to the park because of having so much work to do there.
Maybe today i will get out. |

Finally I am putting up some more images. I was a little disappointed because the lens couldn't focus to infinity
or even very close to infinity. Now I observed that both lenses don't reach infinity even on the Exa cameras they
came with. That's too bad because I was hoping to sell one.
So far out of seven Tessars I have purchased only one has been without problems.
Perhaps Attila's lens service man can fix the problem. I will try them some more on a nice day, shooting within their limits.
Here are a few shots, some extremely sharpened to make up for the difficulty I had coping with the lens.

It is just a little stiff.
All had the contrast increased. Some sharpened also.
