@ Orio: You don't see these "pip" ring versions very often other than my two Fleks and Attila's Sonnar, although I have seen a Biometar 120 so I wonder if that particular design was discontinued early on in favour of the less easily damaged leatherette design which then changed to the zebra...?


From what I can see, this design is the same as leatherette copy, only difference is the grip. The rest of the lens looks the same.
While on the contrary, the zebra version has a different design not only in the zebras but also in the barrel writings and colours.
And of course the final black version is also different.

I have no idea of the timings - Question

That's what I'm referring to - the sole difference being the focus ring design.

Not that it really matters in the end.

Not for photography - but for a collection it matters. It means that I must search for yet another Flek 4/20! Laughing

After seeing all these beautiful lenses we should make a calendar just featuring the lens.
Could have a contest for the "fold out" lens Very Happy

That's a fabulous collection, Bob! I can just see the calendar now, Miss
January Flek on a nice beach, the waves crashing in....

Sounds good - the lens equivalent of the Pirelli calendar. Wink
