Here's an ad from '68 showing how no-nonsense good them Yashinons are! Smile



I have a couple - you can definitely get better lenses from that era, but these aren't shabby:


DX 135/2.8



DX 35/2.8

A couple with the 35:







And the 135:
this is the very first photo with the lens, with my Spotmatic, she's ringing up the sale





All but the first are on film, either the Spottie or a Fuji ST605

I really like first sample.

They are certainly very attractive lenses, very late 60's design, in the best way.

I have the 200/4 of this series, it needs a bit of loosening of the helical, but I'll put it to work shortly.

I like your work with the 35.

This series is not all that easy to find.
