Today I got a nice package, I bought most of zewraks stuff. There are two lenses I don't know very much about, the Formula 5 28mm/3.5 and the Ina 135mm/2.8, got some info on them? I did a search and found some short info, but would like to know more.
My Takumar collection is growing, added S-m-c 50mm/1.4, 35mm/3.5, 28mm/3.5 and Macro-Takumar 100/4. And lots of other things, like a Chinon 55/1.7 and Meyer 135mm/2.8. Even a Panagor 500/8 
It is nice to be back!

I had an INA 180mm that was very bad. I gave it to walter g who was also unsuccessful with it, but that could very well have been that specific lens. I had seen another INA 135mm and the seller claimed it was a Komura. I have no idea, but that would be a very good thing if true.

Good. They made some pretty decent lenses.

Interesting... I have a Formula 5 bazooka zoom (inscription says: "argus Formula 5 Macro 1:4 80-240mm zoom multi-coated") here and it is not bad for zoom. Attila, I am surprised to hear about a bad 135mm lens. I used to have an Optomax lens which was my first ever 135mm lens. I was decent to very sharp when stopped down a little. Rubbish toward light, because of single coating. Found your post Attila. My god, that is really bad indeed!! http://forum.mflenses.com/viewtopic.php?t=30896&view=previous |
