I've found one Rollei HFT Sonnar 85mm f/2.8 m42 with clean optics, mechanics working fine, no separation, coating seems ok.
The selling price is equivalent to 190 USD.
Is a good price? Ebay and other resources are not conclusive to me.
Thank's ! |

Both actual sales, so $190 sounds like a good deal to me, at the very least you should get your money back. _________________ A Manual Focus Junky...

I don't have a lot of experience with manual lenses, but I own a few m42 and I can tell for sure this rollei is not quick mount; it is a screw-threaded mount m42 and as far as I can tell is the right pitch...hopefully because I think I'll buy it. It's a pick-up only sell so I've reserved it until Saturday . I've talked with the seller and he'll allow me to test it as I wish before payment (great guy until now). Anything in particular to test ... leaving aside a sharpness test-of course, fungus, defective mechanics ? |

I don't think I'd worry about that stuff too much as the price is low enough that a service may bring the total cost up to what they normally sell for.
Aperture works? Oily? Ring turn smoothly?
Focus ring turns easily? Smoothly?
Glass clean? A flashlight really helps illuminate anything, just be aware most older lenses have dust in them.
Look for scratches or fungus at the edges. _________________ A Manual Focus Junky...

as a newbie member of this forum I did search in the depths of older threads:
http://forum.mflenses.com/rollei-50mm-f-18-sl-planar-with-m42-mount-t56769.html
Facit: If the lens is in acceptable condition: buy!
M42 is much more universal than QBM bayonet, and if You own a Rolleiflex SL, therer are adapters M42 to Rollei QBM without glas insert and the ability for infinite focus!
Did I say alredy : B U Y !

probably.. the only M42 version of this lens would be a Color-Dynarex 2,8/85 for the Voigtländer VSL1 TM
There was another one like this on ebay:

This is the original M42 mount for this lens. I owned one once, and it had exactly the same mount. M42 versions are rare, but they do exist. _________________ List of lenses |

I have taken the rollei today. It has the filter thread bent ( near the 2,8/85 markings ), and obvious signs that it was tried a repair of the bent metal, but still took it.

Just to help you searching images - this Voigtlander Color-Dynarex was also labeled as Rollei MC Rolleinar or Mamiya Sekor SX. As for the rest of Rolleinar lenses, its manufacturer is Mamiya. |

Thank you, very much.
I have searched images taken with the lens, and I found them good ones.
But I think the member who had or have it can tell his feeling using the lens, you know what I mean.
Yes, as you said it's a mamiya SX lens rebranded. From the end of SX series production, when there were a 85/1,7 and the 105/2,8 too. Who knows why.. |
