Thanks for the comments . I have used the lens in a small shoot out and the images are just amazing.
My version is this:
I believe there is a zebra version too, however I can`t tell you if the optical formula is different between them or the Meyer Optik. _________________ I have many great Russian cameras and lenses for sale on my ebay account, please check it out: http://www.ebay.com/sch/piksius/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=25&_trksid=p3686

Well I found with my Zebra ver that other very good 135mm lenses were a bit sharper (only seen in a large crop) but the Zebra gave more chance of achieving pop in depth. Something like this on a film camera after a quick search:-

Contax 139, Fuji STX-2, Konica Autoreflex TC, FS-1, FT-1, Minolta X-700, X-300, XD-11, SRT101b, Nikon EM, FM, F4, F90X, Olympus OM2, Pentax S3, Spotmatic, Pentax ME super, Praktica TL 5B, & BC1, , Ricoh KR10super, Yashica T5D, Bronica Etrs, Mamiya RB67 pro AND drum roll:- a Sony Nex 3
