I saw one of these on Ebay US a month or so ago, only that one was identified as an Industar conversion in the description, so I guess you couldn't call it a fake, just a curiosity.

Anyway, I thought the Industars were Tessars, not Sonnars. Guess if you are going to pretend it is a Zeiss you can pretend it is a Sonnar. Laughing

You could call it a fake, because it's not a Zeiss lens and not even a copy of one, But you couldn't call it a forgery because its not a copy of a real one being passed on as the genuine article.

fakes and forgeries are different things.

Which is intriging me there is that it's noted as M42 lens, whereas it's RF version of Industar...
