I just bought this lens. Do you have any idea what I bought? I know that it sounds very stupid but when I saw "Kaleinar", "2.8/100", "mint condition", price "$45 + $15 shipping" I just paid. What do you think? _________________ Cheers, Voytek |

That's not a bad price at all. I've never gotten to use my version. When I got it the focus was off, so it had obviously been reassembled incorrectly. I will devote a day to fixing it later this month. Good luck with your copy. I've seen some incredible results. |

I have P6 copy of Kaleinar 2.8/150 and this is very good lens. This one I just bought is in M42 mount which is quite rare. We will see. I am sure that price is right. _________________ Cheers, Voytek |

Just thought I would share some of the results I thought were particularly stunning. He spelled the lens Kalejnar so they don't come up in the standard search.
I have the m42 mount too. There are a couple of H (Nikon) designated Russian lenses out there so you now have the option of interchanging mounts.

Thank you Marc for attaching those links. Portraits are astonish. When I see such photos I always think to try film. _________________ Cheers, Voytek |
