It seems a "rare" lens?

It's not rare, but what do you want to know? It should be a fine performer.

If I am not wrong, there are some different blade versions of Tessar 50mm Chrome (10 or 12 blades) and some with Red T, I just want to know how different it is when comparing with other version .... Mike

This seems to be the semi-auto model (aperture ring needs to be turned manualy to enable the aperture-transfer pin).

I think this is the last model, which is based on the former (pre-war) tessar optical formula.

I have bunch of Tessars I didn't see any difference between them.

I took this yesterday (at about F4). It looks slightly soft but OK. Gotta shot more after rain this weekend. Mike
