Need advice on a lens

Hey everybody,

I'm new to the forum and to manual lenses. I bought a Vivitar 90mm 2.5 a couple of weeks ago and I AM HOOKED.

I'd like to buy a Tair-11a. The ones for sale tend to be in the former Soviet republic. So all I can go on is pictures. A seller states his lens is mint - scratch and oil free. Does this look oil free? What is on the blades?




Thanks for your thoughts.

Herb

This is a preset diaph lens.
Oil is normal.

About price, I got mine for 70€ + delivery cost.
It is mint with case and filters.

135mm f2.8. 20 blades diaph !
