The lens could use a cleanup; using it as i received it after sitting in someones's storage for some time without a cap or filter. The aperture blades have some oil.

The lens:









All images taken @f3.5 in light rain when outdoors.






Would make a wonderful potrait lens, and has likable bokeh .

Regards

it's a really nice lens... got this one as part of a bigger package. I was a bit shocked about the great results even wide open.. I couldn't believe how good this lens is.

Is this lens, the Hanimex 180/3.5 the same lens with Soligor 180/3.5?
