One question though. It has Exakta mount. It comes off un-screwing a band off. If I screw it open, is that T2 mount then?
Which adapter should I buy then?

Nice lenses, it has own interchangeable M42 and Exakta mount not compatible with other lenses.

It's a fantastic lens alright, perfect for long portraits because of that buttery bokeh Smile Not sure I like the photos with flash on though, makes them look too artificial (but I am biased as I like natural light, so feel free to ignore my comments Laughing ).

Have fun with this super lens!

Can you explain?
If I buy Exakta adapter, it won't fit?

The Exakta mount can be removed and replaced with a Pentacon / Meyer specific M42 mount. But these mounts can't be used on other lenses (apart from the Pentacon / Meyer 200/4 preset lens). You can use an Exakta adapter with it fine, so no panic Smile

I bought a Meyer to Nikon replacement cone/adapter from member Alex (hk300), but haven´t got any Meyer/Pentacon lenses yet. Sad

Unfortunately, if I understand right, Alex has disappeared from this forum.

Maybe there´s an adapter for EOS as well?

Somebody has converted these to Pentax K also.

I took a couple at my daughters birthday bash at the local theme park. Seemed to work OK for me. It was a very grey november day, so ISO was too high but IIRC these were taken about f5.6.

It's a great lens and good for portraits if you warm it up a bit. WB always looks cold on this lens to me.

It was a freezing cold day Smile But I know what you mean. I took lots of other shots, but they included other peoples kids, so I can't post them. No model release forms handy at the time Smile

HA!

For me this lens deserves the price for the lens with the most 2D feeling.Laughing

Especially the first foto with the frontal flash...

I never used a flash when using this lens. Let me add mine.
crop & auto level

I'm not sure you need one as this is only needed for commercial usage.

At least whole frame is focused. Neutral

Hey Martin, I didn't know that, I thought it was all photos in the public domain. That's very interesting, thanks for the info.
