Just got this one off the Bay. Always wanted one and this one was not that expensive. I'll post some photos of the lens and bellows later. Just one quick snapshot with it. A different way to shoot for sure!! LOL

Congrats!

On a small, lightweight bellows it makes a great walk around lens, for macros down to 1.6:1 magnification:



to infinity(!) focus, for portraits & landscapes:



For critical work, mount on sturdy, precision bellows:

It is on a light weight Vivitar bellows at the present but I plan on finding an Asahi to make it complete. Very sharp and very light weight.

Thank you my friend. It kind of covers that 100 mm hole in my lens collection.

There was one without the bellows for auction at the same time. It was about double the cost of this one. On mine someone engraved a number of some kind on the outer part and the filter ring is bent preventing a screw-on lens shade or filter from being mounted. These I will correct over time. The lenses and the iris are pristine.
