I've put a page of test photos taken with a CZJ Biometar 2.8/120 for P6 to http://galactinus.net/vilva/retro/eos350d_biometar.html.
This lens among a few others was sent to me for testing, in case I was interested. However, I found out that my P6-to-M42 adapter couldn't accommodate all of the P6 lenses as the structure of the adapter prevented infinity focus - the back element of the lenses hit a wall. Consequently, I didn't test all the lenses as I hadn't time or energy to try to modify the adapter.

Hi, Veijo!
Great that you're back! I was really missing you and almost started a "want ad".
And the shots you bring along show one of the reasons why I missed you!

I just used it on the P6 but I could test it on the Nikon D80 trhough p6-Nikon tilt adapter.
Your shots confirm what I did know, very sharp (despite some people on the web say the opposite) and with a bokeh similar to the Planar lenses.

Well, it really isn't possible to say much about the sharpness on the basis of just web sized images, but the full-size versions are quite decent although not spectacular.

Infinity worked with this lens but not with a 65mm CZJ Flektogon or with a 80mm CZJ Tessar.

The Biometar 120 was made in both Exakta and P6 mounts but AFAIK never in native M42 or M39 - the one you mention is probably a P6 mount with an M42 adapter. |
