Very dusty and vintage look Rodenstock Ysaron 150mm f4.5. Testing its color with my K5IIs. It turns out to be a surprise! Great color rendition and reasonable sharpness (all photos were taken handheld). Very Happy Very Happy

Nice results! How did you mount the lens?

I added a suitable size rubber ring (for use by water pipe) a the rear of the lens. Then fitted a M49 hood on it. Then used step-down ring to make it M42. Finally, added M42 extension tubes and M42 helicoid for focusing. Very Happy Very Happy

Nice series! I love each single frame, hard to find crappy enlarger lens I didn't see any, according to my repair man , better to mount them from front side of lens to camera , due these lenses were designed to get light from rear side. May no difference , try it out Smile

Thanks for the tips! I will try mounting it reversely next time to see how it performs. Smile
