Bought this lens really cheap for about 7 dollars and are very pleased with the lens performance.
But my question is if anyone know how old it is and what does the red V stand for?
Thanks in advance

Yes it is gorgeous. I just love the well executed zebra look lenses from that era. Sort of the golden age of SLR prime lenses. After good multi coatings but before mass use of plastic. Just really nice articles of industrial art. _________________ photos are moments frozen in time |
