Hi there ..

Let me show you our new conversion:

Exakta bayonet to M42 thread mount.

The lens belongs now to the member of this forum: my_photography

Robert - the technician has done this excellently - (Andy - (f16sunshine) says better than native Smile )

But we need to wait for my_photography's test shots and critics Smile

A few pictures of the lens

I was very excited to find out from trifox they could convert the lens from Exakta to M42. Will definitely shoot some photos when I receive the lens.

Wow, What a small world after all. Nice to know the root. The lens remains in our MFlenses family. Very Happy

I doubt that I will ever sell this lens. Even if I do, I will try my very best to make sure it is in our MFlenses family.

Wow! Wow, indeed!

I still can't believe that I did not buy such a lens (also professionally converted to M42 by a Zeiss technician) for only €300,- some years ago. Crying or Very sad Crying or Very sad Crying or Very sad

So what... I still cannot believe I passed on a CV 125/2.5 for 500 euros one year ago, and also a Minolta Rokkor 58/1.2 for 70 euros... But smartness comes with age Wink

I think about contacting CSO for converting my pre-war Exakta-mount Meyer Primoplan 7,5cm 1:1.9 to M42 - as long as it is reversible...
