Indeed there are a some Volna-3 topics in the forum but as they have some private topic names I oppened a new topic. Mine aren't daylight shots, some are high ISO, wide open and some are bare flash supported bokeh and color tests. They are all as they are from the camera, no adjustment been made to them.

Full resolution set can be achieved from here:

Carsten, I'm agree with you, it performs very well and way cheaper than the Zeiss Smile This one is not mine but person that I borrow from has more Pentacon-6 lenses, I'll have more medium format test shots when I'll be there.

I have this lens, and think it's my favourite (until I get out more with my Flek). I just wish I didn't have a crop sensor so I could use it more.

I love the colours and bokeh.

Hi, yalcinaydin.

Impressives pics. Great lens!!

I saw in your pics that you have a tamron SP 35-80 too. The Volna is excelñent, and the tamron zoom?

I hear something about this zoom, all goods.

Thx, Rino.

Hi Rino,
this one isn't mine and I gave it back to its owner but the good thing is I supply the owner adapters and he will give his 2nd copy to me for free Smile
He also gave me a a VEGA-12B 2.8/90 that needs cleaning and its blades need fix. I couldn't manage to put the blades and one of them is missing one pin on the blade that causes it get loose and move much than it needs.

I couldn't use the 35-80 much but there is also a set for it in my flickr, it's quite sharp for a zoom.
