M42-
95 & 96 Carl Zeiss Ultron (M42, concave first element) is has characteristic botchy bokeh
97 & 98 Auto Rikenon 55/1.4 has typical Tomioka's common trait in bokeh (you can find it in ML lenses)
99 & 100 Macro Takumar 50/4 1:1 good lens but not used much
101 & 102 SMC Takumar 50/1.4 (most recent version, used own older one given to a friend) very nice lens
Other-
103 & 104 Tamron macro 52B(?) 90/2.5 sharp and creamy bokeh
105 & 106 Jupitor 3 L-mount, I personally really like this lens 105. has a bit of back focus (fixed later)
107 & 108 M-Hexanon 50/1.2 (My forth/fifth expensive lens!) very nice lens (should be  )
109 & 110 Kiron macro 105/2.8 I do not have to comment, but haven't used much.
111 & 112 KERN Macro Switar 50/1.9 APO lens, sharp and nice colour rendition, SWITAR 50/1.8 has more 3D imression

113 & 114 CV APO-Lanthar 90/3.5 there is SLR mount lens used to be available
115 & 116 Auto-Topcor 58/1.4 Pretty good lens, no fault to find sort of (remake of old Topcon Topcor 58/1.4) this M42 mount!
117 & 118 CV Color-Heliar 75/2.5 Very good lens (SLR mount is available too)
119 & 120 CV Color-Skopar 28/3.5 petit but sharp lens
121 & 122 CV Nokton 35/1.2 Cosina's all out effort lens, superb optics and fastest 35mm for RF
123 & 124 CV Nokton 50/1.5 it is fairly good lens, colour rendition is very good (I like it, but not used too much)
125 & 126 CV Nokton Classic 35/1.4 new lens (mine is MC)
127 & 128 CV Snap-Shot-Skopar 25/4 hard to make it bokeh (no RF coupling)
129 & 130 CV Super-Wide-Heliar 15/4.5 Do not regard as poorman's Hologon 15mm, it is a a good lens.
131 & 132 CV Ultron 28/1.9 very good lens, bettered by new Ultron 28/2?
133 & 134 CV Ultron 35/1.7 very good lens too, very sharp also (not too large)
135 & 136 CV Ultron 40/2 OM-mount lens, good one but has barrel distortion (a little too much for me)
That's all for today. The next and last is by Prakticars (me calls my collection).

Pentacon 135/2.8 wide open.
The background is a scruffy hedge against a grey sidewalk. I don't know any other lens that will render that background so smoothly, although I did recently pick up a 210mm Rodenstock Eurynar LF lens that has possibilities.

Helios 40-1. I know that this lens can render a very jittery bokeh when the highlights are distinct, but when it is good it can be very, very good.

Thanks, Attila. Nice to see you again.
This one is a little different, a seven-inch f/3.7 Petzval lens on 4x5. Lots of edge distortion with this very old lens.
The background of #1 is a brick wall. The pattern of the bricks almost vanishes.
#2 was cropped for composition purposes, but you can still get a sense of the distortion.

I wish I could remember. It was on a short extension tube, so from the size of the in-focus area I must have stopped it down somewhat.
f/4 would be my guess. Maybe 5.6. |

I agree with Attile about Biotar's bokeh,
this lens has "a hard to describe" bokeh in a mid distance. 
Oh yeah. Welcome to MFlenses, Scribo.

Many old lenses have that 3D effect. I wonder if it has something to do with air spacing between lens elements.
Here's another favorite, an 18 cm/4.5 Hugo Meyer Aristostigmat, shot wide open. It's not as apparent here, but on a print, the front part of the face jumps off the page.
The light-color background is lapped wood siding. The details completely dissolve.
If I had to pick a bokeh champ among makers, it would be Meyer. This lens, the 135 Pentacon, the 100 and 135 Trioplans, the 35/4.5 Primagon are all superb in that respect. And that's just the few that I have used.

I agree. I tried only Telefogar 90/3.5 and Telemegor 180/5.5 and both of them had very good bokeh (the 90/3.5 seems to be slightly better than 180/5.5). I also like Primoplan 58/1.9 results, which I saw in many threads on this forum.
