I just bought an L39 orion 15, but using it on my nex it produces only a very small and blurred image circle - it doesn't even cover the sensor's short side - and obviously there's no way to have anything in focus.
Did anyone see this problem before? Can it be fixed? Or can you post a couple of pics of your copies so I can check what's wrong with mine?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks.
It looks exactly like mine (mine has serial number starting with 78), so nothing obviously wrong with it from outside.
However, I decided I will have it serviced: first because I can't really figure out what's wrong with it, and in the end it was so cheap that adding the repair price it will still be slightly under the average prices around.

Some sample pictures from my Orion-15 28mm/F6 on Ricoh GXR-M earlier today (clickable for larger view):
In terms of nice bokeh there are for sure other lenses far better. Though for sharp pictures of landscapes I would consider this lens as rather excellent.
The macro shot was done with a 7mm extension ring. There are better macro lenses around as well. 
Sorry for the dust on the sensor.
BTW, the lens was made 1959 by KMZ.

This lens is definitely underrated. Maybe I will do a 28mm comparison as well sometimes. I would rate this lens among the best ones (at least for landscapes).
