Nice results . Interesting saturation and color rendition.
The lens is maybe not unique but quite old, belonging to the first batch of Yashica's M42 lenses.
http://yashica.org/298-2-YASHINON+128+f5cm.html
Actually 602699 is the new "lowest" recorded s/n
Question: May I use your pictures of the lens as such on Yashica.org? _________________ Visit the Yashica Information Site! |

I am no product photographer, but here are rough snaps of my 5cm F 2.8 Yashinon:
As you can see, the previous owner(s) ding the filter ring above the F 2.8 marking of the lens, but it does not effect optical performance (that I can see anyway) |

This is my 35/2.8 Super Yashinon-R for Yashica Pentamatic bayonet(not C/Y)
It's focus ring is the smoothest I've used.
I still have to figure out an adapter for it, Minolta AF is the closest I've found, but I can't do much till my NEX 7 arrives.
Anyways, a couple pics of the lens.

They look identical, same time era- that Pentamatic almost looks like it will unscrew to reveal a M42 underneath? Wishful thinking. _________________ kathmandu

I have the 3.5cm Yashinon-R lens in M42...it seems to be exactly the same, but with a chrome aperture ring. _________________ Eugene

Waiting for a Yashinon 5cm f/2.8 to arrive, my 2nd lens of the year after my Rokkor MC 100/3.5 Macro.
https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/MmcAAOSwRctdh9WG/s-l1600.jpg
It will be going with my 3.5cm f/2.8 and 10cm f/2.8 Yashinon Tominons
I've also been watching for the 5.5cm f/1.8 Pentamatic, they usually want more than I want to pay same with the 5cm f/2.8 _________________ A Manual Focus Junky...

I modified the adapter to mount Yashica's Pentamatic mount.
Very little modification is needed to reach infinity,
I used 500-800 grit wet/dry sandpaper on glass,
and sanded the mount surface till the lens mounted,
then removed the mount and did the same to the body till it reached infinity. _________________ A Manual Focus Junky...

Thanks, they're as well built as any lens I've come across, truly a joy to use, I wish there were more lenses like them. _________________ A Manual Focus Junky...
