I would like to try a Volna-9, but I had a look on ebay and its prices seem outrageous, about 2x the price of an SMC Tak 55/1.8. So, if you have one you want to sell at a reasonable price, or want to trade with a different lens, PM me. |

Volna-9 have never been cheap...
if you would like something similar, the Industar-61 "close focus" can often be had for much less... maybe US$20-30 +shipping. |

I don't know what the going rate for the Volna-9 is these days, but "twice the price" of one of the most mass-produced "standard" lenses for the Pentax screw mount SLRs, for one of the *best* Soviet macro lenses ever made doesn't sound so outrageous to me

Maybe this gives me reason to take my volna9 out and use it. I have to confess I haven't used it more than once since I got it years ago ... because I'm still reaching for the industar instinctively!
The one time I did try it, it didn't seem to be all that much diff from my industar. |

Tough question.
Cash mainly, because I doubt that members in this forum would be interested in any of my lenses.
Anyway, what I have I'm not using and could be used as full or partial payment, in no particular order
* Helios 44-M6
* Industar 61lz
* S-M-C Takumar 55/1.8 and SMC Takumar 55/2
* Kiron 70-210/4 (received in trade from Carsten last month, but I never use it)
* Tamron SP 28-80mm
* Tamron 105/2.5
* Pentacon 100/2.8
* Fujinon EBC 200/4.5, recently cleaned by my repairman
* Mamiya SX 135/2.8
* Kiev4A with Jupiter-8, recently CLA'd by my repairman
* Konica AR Hexanon 50/1.7
* Konica AR Hexanon 135/3.5
* Fujinon 55/1.8
* Pentacon 50/1.8
* Agfa Super Silette with Solinar lens, recently CLA'd by my repairman
And I'm sure there's other stuff which I've forgotten. |
