Well my recent ebay purchase has restored my faith in grabbing a bargin again. Very pleased with the lens all for the princely sum of £6.05, but I must admit he only described it as a Telephoto Lens so worth trawling all adds.:
Meyer-Orestegor 200mm f4-22 Zebra both shot at f8 around 1/250.

Although of the two of us, you are still the most likely to physically pick a 737 up 
Oh how did we get so OT? Pentacon lenses still seem to be available at decent prices. The 135/2.8 preset is a little more difficult these days, but can usually be gotten with a body.

I did put a bid on for £25 as I've been after one for a while but his description was just one line saying "telephoto lens good condition" so it was a bit of a punt. I was completely gobsmacked when it turned in perfect condition.  Makes up for some of the duffers I've bought recently. |

Well done, I discarded all my other 200s in preference to the Pentacon 4/200.
Bargains can still be had, I picked up a PB mount Pentacon 2.8/135 for 99p plus 4 quid postage last week, I know have all three 135s that were made in PB mount - Prakticar(Sigma), Pentacon and CZJ.

Congrats on the bargain!
I'm after a 200 (and a 400) to add to my Pentacon collection.
I snagged my 300/4 for pennies in M42, and my mint 135 in PB for a few quid (Badly listed). The 35mm cost me a bit more at £20, but it's mint. Still need an adaptor for the 135, or to modify the mount.

Yes!
I picked up a Canon AE-1 with near mint 2.8/28 and 1.8/50 FD lenses and a near-mint Vivitar Series 1 2.3/135 for 30ukp from a seller 15 miles away so just popped round and collected it.

A little OT
Does the 135/2.8 have a 2x convertor that comes with it? I have just picked up a 135 and have the option of buying a convertor that fits with it.
Thanks
I missed out on a 200 Pentacon,wish I had bid a little harder now after seeing your plane images!

Soligor and Tamron marketed their "converto" or "twin-tele" 135/2.8 with a matching TC. Don't think Pentacon/Meyer did the same. |

How did you do it? Throw it in laundry machine ? That must have taken some time.
I collect those too. I don't mind reserving a special shelf for them. I do prefer Meyer's multiple blades, though MC coating and smooth barrel finish of the latest type is great too. This photo is few years old thus obsolete .

I have that Pentacon TC and it's good, it's not rare though, seen on ebay frequently. It needs to be paired with a very good lens in my experience.
