Have tested a Auto Chinon MC 50mm f/1.7 which has a Pentax K (PK) mount.
Below are some of the test shots taken with this lens.
The pictures are analog and are taken with a Chinon CG-5, AGFA CINEREX (X-ray film) and developed in X-tol.
Color shots are digital and are taken with a Canon 500D with lens mount adapter.
My review has more and hires images and can be found here if you're interested: http://blog.bkspicture.com/review_Auto_Chinon_MC_50mm_f1.7.html

this lens seems to be a 'love - hate' thing, many people seem to rate it highly while others think it's poor. I like mine a lot, and judging by your pictures I'm not far wrong. _________________ LENSES & CAMERAS FOR SALE.....

I like it too. It may sometimes have low contrast wide open but that may not be a con. It has a special quality wide open that makes almost every image come out nice.

I think there are lots of different lenses wearing the Chinon f1.7 50mm branding, certainly there is one made by Cimko, another that looks like a Cosina and there are certainly more variants. _________________ I don't care who designed it, who made it or what country it comes from - I just enjoy using it! |

Cosina made(Vivitar, PORST): https://www.pentaxforums.com/userreviews/porst-50mm-f1-7-color-reflex-mc-auto.html
CHINON "made"(AGFA, Revuenon): https://www.pentaxforums.com/userreviews/chinon-auto-mc-50mm-f-1-7.html
They are different lenses. Sticky, dry Cosina focusing helicoid distinguish them. Talking about Pentax bayonet version. _________________ ---------------------------------

Amazing clarity! I also have this lens which I got in a lot. I quickly trested it and di not find special. It's time to reconsider the first impression. |
