Woodrim graciously offered me this lens to complete my 645 kit. It is much better than I deserve. Thanks my friend. I'm shooting it right now on my Pentax K7 till film arrives for my Pentax 645. What do you think?
I like it so far. Not having used a Biometer CZJ I can't compare.

its funny BD, what we come to like and not like. i find, for ex, that i really dont like 50mm or 135mm angle of view. instead of a 50, i use either a 35 or an 80+-5, depending on the situation. both of which FLs i am drawn to. instead of a 135, i really like this 120 FL, and the biometar quality is tremendous. kind of arbitrary really, and so subjective. but i'd sell all my 135s before i let the bio 120 go!

Looks very good.
I wonder what is the character differences of this Volna compared to Biometar 85/2 and Orestor 100/2.8?
This Volna previously is on my list, but I got those 2 lenses first

Hey, just to set the record straight, I gave it to him CHEAP, not for free. I'm not a philanthropist. If I'm not going to use a lens much, I would rather sell than collect or hold out for big price. I have others to sell cheap if any of you cheap guys are interested.
