Well, I bought this lens because I like all Aluminium lenses Smile





Unfortunately, it's in exacta mount. Having purchased an adapter, a morning's shooting confirmed that there is a problem with the mirror on my 5D Sad It shows potential though !








Even more so when used with bellows.




The hunt for an M42 version begins Smile Smile Smile

It does look your mirror is hanging up. Take a snap then undo the lens from body to hear a click from the mirror. Better yet, move mirror to lockup position then attach lens to body see if you get that black in your next image. I shoot my Triotar with mirror up on my 5dmkII and many other Exakta mounts also with mirror up. Course I get liveview which works in mirror up position so I can focus Twisted Evil
