I saw good lens on PENTINA Camera mount. I never heard this mount.


Anybody knows if this kind of mount can be adapted to EOS?Thanks

I think its a P6 lens.
P6 is medium format, so you need and adapter, no glass needed.

The Pentina was the Pentacon attempt to produce a leaf shutter SLR, similar to the West German leaf shutter SLRs. I haven't tried Pentina lenses, but Contaflex and Retina lenses have driven me off bothering to adapt leaf shutter SLR lenses - the lenses mostly are optically constrained by the shutter location and diameter, so that they perform worse than the same lens in a focal plane shutter SLR mount, and they are harder to adapt.

As far as I can make out, there only ever were four lenses for the Pentina - a 30mm Lydith, 50mm Tessar, 85/2.8 Jena Cardinar and 135/4 Domiron. The 85mm seems to be the only unique one among them.

I could adopt to Olympus E-1 or Nikon D50 with electrical tape Laughing Laughing and I did make some pictures , leave it and look for better fit lenses , don't butcher it.

Thanks everyone, Its a domigor, like Attila's one. Yeah I'll leave it, rarity isn't my priority. The seller said top rare, function is more important Very Happy
Sevo, domiron is 50/2 if I'm not mistaken, Attila sell it in exa mount
