From what I have seen, I would even prefer the Meyer lens to the Pentacon.
I once had a Pentacon 2.8/135 and, yes, it was a good lens but by no means as fantastic as many say it is, rather slightly above average. |
Well I suppose someone can post results of a 135mm lens superior in lines/mm to the Meyer/Pentacon, but my Meyer has some quality (hard to describe quality) that shows using film. |
Why did you quote my statement in your post? I don't get that.
Disagreement? Confirmation? |
....only because you said it was "slightly above average". Well unless someone can show the Pentacon is definitely inferior to the Meyer, I would assume the lenses are very similar.

Price would be fine if healthy but this part worries me:
"Within a lot of dust particles, minor dirt-deposits and a little haze at the inner glass."
I wish you luck with haze being only product of condensation.

| Actually I've got a Auto Pentacon 135 2.8 6 blades, really good...but I like 15 blades effect. I'm wondering if, having a 135 already, could be a great choice also the 200mm f4 15 blades, what do you think about this lens in regard of 135mm? |
I have the preset Pentacons 135 & 200. My copy of the 200 seems to be sharp at F4; it's probably sharper wide open that the 135 ever gets. Both have great bokeh.
Of course most most `bokeh' shots feature the lens wide open when the amount of blades is meaningless.

The seller kindly sent me a link to the shots of this lens:
What do you think? Do you see any problems in the rendering of optics?
Thank you very much.
