Tele-Tokina 105mm/2.8 Preset T2 with M42-connection

In my test it feels good. Only flaw I can se is dinged filterring, but it can still take filters and doesn't seem to affect function. The focusring is a bit heavy to turn, but works (probably will be great with some grease).

I love this lens, but mr zewrak is tempting me with something else I might love and that fits in my growing Asahi-collection Wink

The reason I'm asking for price idea is that I have never seen one like this on the net, eventhough a lot of searching. So, what would you pay? Wink

I presume this is not the macro lens? That is known as the "bokina" and has almost vanished from ebay because no-one wants to sell. That would probably command close to $400

No, not the macro Smile At least I don't think so, but then it wouldn't be named "Tele-" right?

A 105mm of that age is very rare!
I'm sure at least $400 on a good day!
I should keep it!

A fair price on US ebay would be maybe $20-25

Ok, between $20 and $400 somewhere Laughing

But I can understand why it would be hard to set a price, I really can't find any more examples when googling (except my own pages at retrocamera etc).
