A few images from this very nice lens, made in West Germany (probably by Enna Muenchen),
very much under-rated, but capable of taking very nice and contrasted pictures,
with an effective balance of good sharpness and nice bokeh.
This version is the multi coated one. There is also a non-MC version that performs worse
(and is probably the cause of the poor reputation of the lens).

EDIT: From Attila's info, lens probably made by ISCO Goettingen.

another crop from picture #2, I really like the bokeh of this lens:

I like how the bokeh renders the softness of the fur:

A guy on Flicker claims it's the same lens as Macro Ennalyt 2.8/35:

A bit, yes, especially at the beginning. But she understands now that I am still her loving daddy Smile
All my four cats now live together and respect each other, although they are not what I would call "friends" (except for the two kids, who love each other).
In this, cats prove once again to be infinitely wiser and more advanced than humans.

Hi Orio,
That's a very nice kitten you have Smile

I've seen the same lens for sale today.
Is it a true macro lens or it's just the name tag?

It will be mi third 2,8/35 if i decide to buy it.Very Happy

Thanks,
Stefan

Third image is perfect.
Saw that lens many times but I can't even imagine how it performs. Now see. Very surprising and promising how it looks.
Thanks for sharing.

Orio, very nice and what a beautiful cat! I want one of those lenses now! M-42 mount?

Astonishingly good. I thought that was the Enna plastic version, but maybe it is a different,
much better one done by someone else (ISCO?)

Absolutely puzzled...
I got this lens and the results were worse than bad. Probably I got a bad copy, or it has been serviced and not rebuilt properly.
After seeing your images, I'll try to fix it.
A real nice performance from yours!

Regards.
Jes.
