I found this Primoplan, on a nice old Praktica, with case and accessory viewfinder (black).
The lens looks infested by fungus and haze, and possible a couple of scratches. Difficult to assess from the pics, the fungus practically covers all the glass.
Current prices are quite crazy, the M42 version gets sold on Ebay for 300 to 450 euros.
This would be way cheaper, but I'm not sure it would clean to a decent condition.
Here are a few pics, what do you think?

Oh and i bought a Jack Hannes im/ex 5.5/300 the other day for £20/€25 which was a bit too much for me for this, impulse purchase. M42, preset, tripod collar. Tested on a 5D, suprisingly sharp, low CA. If i keep it i plan to use it on a E-P2 with IBIS as a pseudo 600mm but im not so into long lens pictures that much.
Minimum focal distance is 20feet 6meters |

The picture was taken with a temporary "adapter" (Scotch tape + macro ring M39 + M39-NEX). the camera was bought for the manufacture of the adapter Kiev-NEX (see here http://forum.mflenses.com/q-about-adapting-helios-103-t78618.html). but the camera was in excellent condition. I did not dare to make out this beautiful thing and I left Kiev in the collection untouched. now I'm thinking about the adapter. |

Two new lenses to share.
First, a new lens from China, marketed by 7Artisans. It is a 1.2/35 in native Sony E Mount. An APS-C lens. Here mounted on my A6500. These are available on Amazon, in Sony (and other crop mounts I believe) for around US $170.
And second, a 1970s era Carl Zeiss Ultron, 1.8/50 with a concave front element and M42 mount. These lenses aren't rare but they are expensive in the US, generally being offered for around USD $800. I just accidentally came across this beauty shortly after it was listed on Ebay for a USD $399 BIN price. The photos looked so good I couldn't resist it. Lucky for me. It was just delivered today and is in beautiful condition. It is working great on my A7II with the TAP.

A cheapo zoom I couldn't pass up. It's a Korean-made Albinar 70-210mm f/3.9 -- constant aperture. I became curious about it because I have owned copies of the Albinar 80-200mm f/3.9 and I wasn't aware that a 70-210 with the constant aperture of f/3.9 existed. So I decided to buy it (it was cheap, found it at shopgoodwill.com for like $6). It's in Canon FD mount and in excellent overall condition. I plan to do some comparison photos with it and the Albinar 80-200 to see just how different these two lenses are from each other. They look the same, except for the different focal lengths.
The Albinar 80-200mm f/3.9 was the first zoom lens I ever owned. I bought it back when I was a complete neophyte to photography, and my attitude then was a zoom was a zoom was a zoom. I didn't know from optical quality. Fortunately for me, that old Albinar was capable of some excellent results, especially when stopped down some. So I'm curious to see if this 70-210 is as capable as the old 80-200 I used to own (and own again -- my first one was in Canon FD mount, the one I own now is in Nikon F mount).
Here are a couple of pics of the 70-210:

So from serial 92xxx onwards it was no fluorite used anymore, right? [btw. it was not crystallized Calcium Flourite https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorite#Optics but a fluoride glass used, that means a glass melt where special fluorite(s) was/were added to it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluoride_glass ] _________________ Klaus - Admin

And another welcome, Gary. I too like that 20mm. I've been jonesin' for that 20mm f/3.5 UD for a few years now. One of these days I'll be able to afford to pick up a nice clean one. I'll wager that you'll enjoy yours. It's a great lens. _________________ Michael
