I'm considering selling this lens, because even if I love it, I'm rarely using it recently.
It is in good used condition, I guess standard for the age, with extremely clear glass, and it has been recently serviced by Attila's repairsman: I hardly took it out since it came back, except for a couple of test shots.
It's in m39-reflex mount and, when used on my nex with a m39->m42 - m42->nex adapter the focus doesn't get to infinity, it stops at 10-15 meters away: however it looks like a common issue with this kind of lens, and honestly I was never tempted to shoot something really far with it, so I never really cared.

However, since such an early copy of this lens is somewhat rare, and some auctions on ebay have completely unrealistic prices, I have no idea of what would be an honest price.
So I'll accept/evaluate offers - if this doesn't break the forum's rules.

It comes with generic caps, orginal green cylinder cardboard box, and a hood that I suppose is original.

Contact me via private message for offers, further information or whatever.

Some item photos would help both sides, I presume.

Yes, you are right, I'll post some between tonight and tomorrow morning. I should have waited to have the pics before posting here but I didn't think about it. Sorry.

Here are the pics, I tried to highlight imperfections (basically, some wear on the body and some dust inside) as much as possible, even exaggerating them, as in number 6 where I pointed a flashlight through the lens and put a dark background so that every dust particle is fully visible.

Damn, I arrived too late. I would have bought this, but I've just spent over �300 on a new Tv so I have no money to spare Sad

I've wanted one for ages, now the wait will go on a bit longer.
