Did not try this one much, as I didn't make a mount adapter for Pentax.

This was different from the rest of this series not just in the mount but in the hood/filter mounting which was a snap-in type which i understand was normal for Alpa.

Alpa stuff is really for collectors.

I had four others that were the same or very similar in Exakta or M42.
Five elements. Very nice.

Lenses like this are real chick magnets Wink

Here is my old M42 version.
I had a newer copy, but my thick fingers kept confusing the thin focus grip with the aperture ring which was close by.
With this copy, I never have that problem.
Mo has the other copy and is loving it.

OH
