Strange mount, short flange distance! I cut away part of the rear-end/mount of the lens and inserted the remaining rear part of the lens into a M52->M42 focusing helicoid. Conversion is done and I produced the pictures below for testing. Comments on its performance are welcome. Smile

Can we get a pic of the lens and the conversion itself?
