I have a Meyer Lydith branded Pentacon 3.5/30mm m42 mount. It is in excellent condition (spotless glass and almost mint body) and has recently traveled the world (Poland and Russia), haha. It produces incredible images I just have to many lenses in that range. I've been looking for a Helios 44-3 2/58mm produced by MMZ, Helios 44m-7 2/58mm by Valdai, or a Zenitar-M 1.7 or 1.9/50mm by KMZ for a while now. I figured it might be worthwhile for someone.

This is a very nice offer! We should all look for our storage, I love Lydith.

Don't mind the caption. I have used this lens extensively now and can confirm that it is a wonderful copy!

Here are some samples I made with it: http://forum.mflenses.com/st-petersburg-pentacon-3-5-30mm-t9267.html

My scanner does not really give justice to the original prints but I think you can get an idea of the quality.

I don't think anyone was interested anyways but I'm unfortunately going to have to withdraw the offer, at least for a little while, unless of course someone contacts me in the next couple of days.

Now that my girlfriend has gotten a little more into photography she's interested in trying different focal lengths. I figured I'd just give her this one instead of letting her borrow one of the lenses I use more.
