Thought they'd never come as the guy I got them from is sometimes a bit flaky - but here they are Embarassed Previously used on video cameras but all in very good shape.

Flektogon 2.4/35, Planar 1.4/85, Biometar 2.8/120, Planar 1.4/50 ZF(yep, that's the Nikon version), Biometar 2.8/80 - all with EOS adapters attached.



Excited? Me? Oh yes!!! Will do some individual shots when I have time - this back to work stuff is tiring!

Great lenses! I feel sorry for the geared lenses though... Can the gears be removed without harm for the lenses?

Thanks!

As to the oversized focusing rings; they're held with tiny hex-bolts for which I don't have a key here at the office, and they're not too tightly screwed on. They'll be coming off as soon as I get them home Wink

Wow, what a batch !

As for the add-on focusing rings - keep them, I think they are individually fitted for each lens and are interesting in themselves.
