I never heard this lens and I found only one entry in google , seems a rare lens indeed. Mine copy is well used seems somebody love it I am curious about the quality. I expect crap or perfect lens not an average one.

"Kinegon" ? With this name I would expect a motion camera lens.
Never heard of it, either. Any manufacturer name?

try to google it I didn't find any usable information. It has normal M42 mount, perhaps T-Mount.

The only source I found is at: http://www.ihagee.org/vimlens20070306.pdf

Brand: Petri-Taron
System: Kine

Doesn't say a lot, does it?

Cross my fingers for you that you can use it and that it is a nice lens.

Might be, looks like this lens. I suppose this lens is produced by one of the sort life Japanese manufacturers who operated around in 1960. Like Komura or others. I had a Komura 200mm f4 lens too, it was crappy I sold it, still never seen any other copy.

This lens was one of the best buy in this year, I took it for 12 EUR. Look at the test photos good as Nikkor or Olympus or other big brand products. Real benefit the pre-set mechanism so much joy to use on digital camera. I love this lens.

Is it pre-set aperture lens? From the pic, it looks like Takumar preset series copy. I have Takumar 135mm f3.5 preset as well as 200mm f5.6 preset, and both are superb in quality.
