Ok, to keep it short, Anyone with any knowledge about this lens?
Got negative find with Google.
I know that Makinon is not a celebrated brand, maybe the quality is so bad that people just don't buy their lenses anymore, or even remembers their stuff?

Hi minahasa, welcome to the forum.
That looks like a nice lens! A manual focus zoom with constant f/2.8 is not common imho.

One of the last lens made by makina (phase 2 or phase 2 ultra with makina words) = Quality must be good (not stellar but good)
Old makinon lenses were low to max medium quality
Last series were ok on quality
ALL makinon lenses are very very well built

It can't be seen from the ad that this is real beast.

Here's more pics
If I'm not mistaken, there's a Tamron Adaptall that resembles this lens specs. I can not give any sample shot yet, sill waiting for this lens, and International shipping could take 4 weeks to reach me..

True but the tamron 35/105 2.8 adaptall (2) was a more recent lens and that lens is one-touch design.
I have two mirror lenses made by Makinon
300 5.6 medium quality (same quality as sigma 400/5.6)
http://forum.mflenses.com/sigma-5-6-400-catadioptric-t39033.html
but very very handy
500 8.0 very good quality / not very far from my ZUiko 500/8 (ps : i sell it)
http://forum.mflenses.com/makinon-500-8-mirror-lens-samples-t36828.html
+ the 1000mm 11 from makinon was very well quoted in a lens test

Correct. And I was referring to the optical specs since I don't see many lens with that kind of specs, do you? However, this lens physical form reminds me of Tokina AT-Xs

As far i can remember : all the 35/70 2.8 constant
Tokina ATX 35/70 2.8 = Two touch
Makinon 35/70 2.8 = Two touch
Olympus 35/80 2.8 = Two touch
Nikon 35/70 2.8 = Two touch
Pentax 35/70 2.8 = Two touch
Minolta/Fuji/Contax/Rollei NO 35.70/2.8
Kiron/Vivitar/CosinaSigma NO 35.70/2.8
You can find some non constant 35.70 with ~the same opening : Ie : Angenieux 2.5/3.3 (+- 1/2 stop from 2.8 constant) or Soligor/Tefnon/Cpc.. 35/70 2.5/3.5 (+- 1/2 stop from 2.8 constant) or different focal range : ie : Sigma 28/70
