No experience, but to know how to adapt it, you need to know which bayonet is it : Б (pentacon 6) or B (Kiev-8Cool

Here is a Б :



Here is a B :



If it's a Б, you need an adapter Pentacon-6 to Canon. If it's a B, you need a Kiev/salut adapter to Canon. The second one is harder to find, whereas the first one is made by chineese for few dollars on ebay.

Lots of quality variation on these lenses.

I bougth two Arsat C's and one Volna-3. I end up selling them all, because they where much softer than the Biometar, also lots of vignetting on 6x6.

I do know some of them are excellent, because a friend of mine owns one. I will probabily buy a couple more till a find one I can shoot both on digital and 120 film.
