Hi all -
I came across this lens on eBay
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140431520487&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
Few hours searching on the internet show nothing about it. Does anyone have any idea about this lens?

I came across such lens in beautifull condition in the local photoshop. Last M42 lens there (YS-mount for Pentax ES). Offered for € 20 and that was not enough to let it be where it was. Searching for results I didn't find much so ... how are the promised samples? Or are they so horrible that they couldn't be showed? |

Not really, you see I've been out of the country for 3 months now so there are approximately 100 lenses waiting for me at home to unbox and try out.

A queue of 100 lenses wating  !? So I need to have lots of patience to wait for the samples or some patience for better wheather (dark and grey now) to create some myself  |

I had this lens in YS M42 mount. It was OK, nothing special.

So it will probably not set my Volna 50mm/2.8 outside? |
