Tomorrow FedEx will deliver a box of lenses that I have acquired over the past seven months. A friend in Europe collects them for me and sends when someone travels to the US. During my feeding frenzy, I have mistakenly acquired more than one of a couple, and some others I probably won't need. I will be spending the weekend trying out all I have time for. I know I will be selling one Jupiter 11 (M42) and one Orestegor (w/M42 adapter). Maybe also the Chinon and INA. I am sure (again) I won't be buying any more lenses. Here is the list:
35mm f/2.8 Chinon M42
55mm f/3.0 Panagor Macro M42
58mm f/2.0 Helios 44-3 M42
58mm f/2.0 Helios 44M-7 M42
85mm f/1.5 Cyclop M42
135mm f/4.0 Jupiter 11 M42
135mm f/4.0 Jupiter 11 M42
180mm f/3.5 INA M42
300mm f/4.0 Meyer Optik Orestegor Pent6 - M42
300mm f/4.0 Meyer Optik Orestegor Pent6 - M42

Yes, dude, you are correct, it is indeed f/4. My error. Although they are both the chrome Jupiter 11 versions (not 11-A), they are both M42. I will be selling one but want to take a series of pictures with it first so I know that all is okay. I'll share the pictures with you and probably average my cost of the two lenses and offer it for that.

They say talking to yourself is the first sign of madness. Actually, it should be the second after buying and collecting so many lenses, especially ones you already own!

One of the 300mm lenses will be for sale as well. Again, I will take pictures with it - and of it - before selling. ManualFocus-G, I will offer to you before posting.
What? Did anyone else hear that?

I would say nice stash but you've already covered that.
The 300 f/4's are the gems there.

Damn, looks like Manual_FocusG has already nabbed the Orestegor 
I have now got the set including and below 200mm, so I was looking to expand in the opposite direction. Pictures in a seperate thread, when the 200mm finally arrives.... |

When I saw that Orestegor, I had to run outside and give it a try. Geesh, is that big! I'm actually impressed with it. Very good sharpness at full aperture with moderate amount of CA (I have a CCD sensor), which is barely noticeable when stopped down to f/5/6. I suspect gone by f/8, but I haven't gotten that far yet with my evaluation. I can't find much fault other than its size. You don't mount this lens to your camera, you mount the camera to the lens.
Next lens I unpacked was the Cyclop, then outside I went again. I had seen the pictures taken with this lens by martyn_ bannister, ovim, spotmatic, Nordentro, and others and was sure I knew how to make best advantage from it. After reviewing my first results, I have my tail between my legs. I must practice. I'll revive the "The One-Eyed Monster
" thread and post a few first results.
The next lens out of the box was the Helios 44-3. I'll report in the current Helios 44-2 thread.
More tomorrow.
