I purchased thsi M39 Jupiter 9 i got it for under the going price but looks in good condition.
is this the RF version or the SLR version, I did look at the tthread but images where blocked at work


I had already treated myself to a Vivitar 90mm F2.8 Macro for next month, and then this came along at a good price and i believe the M39 silver ones are the ones to go for, so did i buy the correct one, I can use on the NEX but would also like to use on the A700

I believe it`s the early M39 SLR version for old Zenit cameras (such as Zenit 1 , C , 3 , 3m and early E ,B models). Theres one exactly like yours ,but fully black and its M42 SLR Smile

The easiest way is to look at the other end - the mount. Focus it and watch if there is a cylinder that moves in and out of the mount as you do that - for rangefinders, that engages the rangefinder mechanism; an SLR lens won't have that.
