I particularly like the last one.

It might be a cheap lens but it produces great shots in the right hands Smile

Yes the 2nd and last are really nice. I have the MC version of this lens, I think it is great as well. It is a very good value, mine was really cheap and mint. If anyone needs a moderately fast 50mm this is a nice choice. Attila, is it just me or does this lens focus closer than usual for a 50mm?

Quality control variations on standard 50mm lenses in the last days of DDR were unfortunately huge. Sad

Very true. My copy was good but not stellar. My one was pretty good on film, btw, so I gave it to my dad who uses it at his L2.
