I just got this lens back from Pete Ganzel (of Dyxum fame).He graciously converted this lens to M42 .I could not have been more satisfied. He did a superlative reversible conversion.He even fixed the crack on the focusing ring much better than I could have anticipated for as an added bonus. I got this lens at a local camera shop in Om mount for about 15% of the going price on ebay .

Picture of lens mount pre/post conversion:


Here are some images post conversion, taken mounted on a Sony Alpha 700 DSLR ,mostly wide open:

We spoke about this in an earlier thread, that was when I had just bought the lens. (You gave me some great diy pictorial on fixing the crack.) I hope you revive yours. Thank you.
