Did you do any PP on these Attila? they look to be a bit low in contrast...

I do , they are mine, even for an old Geordie they still look a little greyed out Smile

But I prefer to go a little nutso with contrast.............

Good pics and results . I have a CZJ Tessar that came with my Exakta Varex IIa , hope it will produce the same results as yours . Didn't have the time to test it.

Yes I did, I rarely publish anything without PP. Usually cheap and old glasses has less contrast than $$$ ones. PP can increase contrast well I see no low contrast here, actual level is more than enough to me.
