Have tested a Panagor Auto Wide-Angle 35mm f/2 which has a M42 mount.

Below are some of the test shots taken with this lens.
The B&W pictures are analog and are taken with a Chinon CEII Memotron, AGFA CINEREX (X-ray film) and developed in X-tol.
Color shots are digital and are taken with a Canon 500D with lens mount adapter.

My review has more and hires images and can be found here if you're interested: http://blog.bkspicture.com/review_Panagor_Auto_Wide-Angle_35mm_f2_M42.html

Panagor is often associated with Kino optical (kiron) do you think this is a kiron lens Bengt? The lens actually has the same style as my panagor 135mm f2.8, silver aperture ring etc. but I have no idea if that's a kino made lens either.

I see some excellent detail in the B&W and beautiful color rendition in the others. Keep it, use it. Smile

Could be a Kino/Kiron but the color rendition reminds me of Komine.

+1. It is the same lens as Vivitar 35mm F1.9, Komine made.

I have a feeling it is a Kino made lens, judging from the images I found on the net and after comparing it to my Vivitar 28mm 2.5 (Kino made). Whatever, my copy (OM mount) is a very good one, as you can see here: .

Apparently it was marketed for a very short time as far as I can gather from the Panagor brochures I found at Boggy's website:
