... with a Rolev M.G. skylight filter aboard. Glass front and back appears mint. Filter has no scratches or smears. Lens is a tad shorter than my takumar 55/2. Focus is smooth but not with that Takumar machined quality. Lens seems to weigh less. Apertures stop down snappily.
Also received today a little extension tube set, M42 of course. First three shots with the Rikenon - aboard the ST605 - were of a fishing lure with each of the rings, one at a time. This opened a whole new world! Shocked
This lens mostly gathered dust, I think ...

No, no digital. Maybe someday, but where would the anticipation be? Cool

Just put black tape over the back LCD, and don't take it off until you get home. Very Happy
