Who can tell me more about this lens? I never saw something remotely familiar as this one. What bayonet is that? What does 2/5.5 mean? 2mm's or 2 cm's?

Thanks.

Looks like Pentaka cine camera bayonet (8mm).
should be 5,5mm f2

Look at this

I have a Sonnar in the same mount which almost covers micro 4/3.

It is 5,5mm - this is the wide angle lens.
The sonnar i have is 40mm and he is the long tele.

So it's the wide angle. It will probably vignet like crazy on a 3/4 camera?

Thanks.

, or . I wish the world would make up their mind. LOL
The lens does have WA traits, I should have looked closer.
