probably a fake Sonnar, 90% sure, but I give 10% to an unknown lens.

Vivid colors come from processing.

Being fake or not, it seems a good lens. Only the bokeh is too harsh...

Yes, I agree. Exciting item , coating layer looks different than Sonnar or J3.

I agree with Jes, fake or not it is very good. The bokeh surprises me, my 1.5 Sonnar (prewar uncoated) has very smooth bokeh. I guess it is due to the background.

Yes, background was busy hard to get lot more smoothness from other lenses too.

unknown lens? fake sonnar? different from J3? Can you share the lens itself? and what mount is it?
Oh.. great images BTW.

I'm sure it's Jupiter 3 with zeiss name plate.
I wonder whether it's price same as J3 or higher

Price is depend somebody respect this is different or not I did it, so lens is already mine, glass may diffrent than other J3 I will check it out in details once, it has yellowish glass.
