Lens is pre-war enlarger lens I think. Un-coated I am pretty sure, with easy contrast modification in post processing pictures come out nicely. Lens register distance is around 45mm works well on Pentax even at infinity. I did try it out with Pentax helicoid extension tube.

No. 6 has nice colours, the first ones seem slightly hazy, but the last of the batch are really good. An interesting lens, and nice pictures.

I'm curious about the Pentax helicoid you are using: what mount is on it, M42? And can you use it to focus to infinity with many enlarger lenses? Is there a picture of it here somewhere?

All enlarger lens what I did test have different register distance , I was lucky this is perfectly fit into my helicoid tube via an M39->M42 adapter ring + a pentax K - M42 adapter.

Love the musicians portraits !
Do you know how this instrument in 1st photo is called, is it typical Hungarian ?

Cheers
