Anyone having experienced this lens?
It's a bayonet mount?

I never heard of any lens called Praktica. I think the name was reserved for cameras. AFAIK, the standard lenses for Praktica cameras were the Pentacon lenses.

No.. (not M42).. it may be a trap Wink

I paid $80 for Carl Zeiss Jena 35mm f2.4 thinking Felk. But found out,
"Carl Zeiss Jena Prakticar"

I think for B-mount lenses for Praktica are Prakticar.

Well, not easy to tell without a photograph.

With a photograph it would be easy, because the Prakticar B is a bayonet - not really mistakeable for a screw mount.
The other alternative is the M42 mount as that is the screw mount size for Praktica cameras.
"MM" is obviously a mistaken word.
The only thing to do, if the photographs don't help, is to ask the seller to be more precise, or at least to tell if the mount is screw or bayonet.

The problem is that I have several auctions saved in my Watch List, and I can't ask any question because the page doesn't have that " Ask seller a question".
First time I tought it's about pages with auctions from USA who ship only to USA but I've found auctions from UK or Canada and it's weird anyway.
Any experience with this kind of bids?

I never seen this kind of bid, let me know the item number I would take a look on it.

My fault. I guess I didn't wipe out my glasses. I've found it.

I would never bid on an item where it's not possible to contact the seller.
