Here's a pic of a few lenses. Can anyone identify all the lenses in this photo? Is it possible to identify these lenses from the picture shown? 
I think I can name them all.

The Fuji lens is either a 50mm or a wide angle, probably a 35mm.
The silver one at the right is a CZJ Biotar 2/58.
The one with the Pentax cap is a Takumar, too small to be a 1.4/50. I guess it's the 3.5/35.
The preset tele lens that is placed on the top of the cam, is a 135mm. Perhaps an old Tamron, but I rather guess it's a "noname" brand, I had a very similar lens labelled "Opticam".
I am not sure about the silver one at the left, perhaps another old German one, and about the lens with the green stripe. The cap says "Hanimex", but that doesn't mean a lot. 
P.S.: Are these your books? What kind of book is "A Field Guide to Demons"?

LOL... "A Field Guide to Demons" is a reference book, I like to write in my spare time. If you look closley you will see other reference books such as "Hero's and Heroines" and "The Complete Fantasy Reference".
That was a very good guess on the 135, it is an Opticam. The lens marked Hanimex, is a Hanimex 28mm 2.8 ( Hanimex made a very large 28mm lens). The other aluminum lens is a 50mm 2.8 Tessar, and the Fujinon is a 55mm 1.8 EBC lens. The Pentax is a "Super Tak 55mm 1.8.
You have good eyes my friend.  |

Do you like to write also?
I do believe most of the titles are still available on Amazon.
"Worlds od Wonder" by David Gerrold is a terrifc book. |

Yes, and I like my students to write. Sometimes fantasy topics trigger some more motivation.
