Interesting. Looks like a lens in barrel with waterhouse stops built into that rotating disk. Does it have the focal length engraved somewhere?

No, it only has MB engraved into it. In the thread I made about it, Luis seems to have identified it as a Marlow Brothers lens.

Well, my Tokina AT-X 150-500mm f/5.6 came in today. Pretty big lens, but a lot shorter than my CPO 500mm f/5.6 telephoto. Weighs more than the CPO, though. Here it is with my new Nikon EL2 that also came in today.
It came with a nice case and a set of drop-in rear filters.
One nice thing about this lens is that, being a one-touch zoom, the collar doesn't creep.

This Beautiful Canon 85mm 1.9 ltm
Me thinks it's a Serenar but Serenar does not appear on the lens.

Very nice indeed. This is a Type 4 - Canon 85mm f/1.9. There was made approx. 9000 units of this model between 1953 to 1958. I believe yours is from 1955-1956. The Serenar (Type 1 and 2, 1951 to 1952) models didn`t have click stop aperture like your lens

Some very fast C-mounts. For your NEX-6? Or a m4/3 project?

The Computar 25mm f1.3 im getting infinity with my old Big Is thin M4/3 C mount adapter, with no mods to lens or adapter.
Im hoping for the same with 12.5 and 50mm lenses.
The Fujinon 9mm f1.4 will be a fast 50mm for my Pentax Q10.

I don't do impulse buys very often. Mostly because I don't usually have enough room in my bank account that will allow for one. But I have a bit of a cushion right now, and I ran across this lens yesterday, and just couldn't resist -- not at that price.
Click here to see on Ebay
This is the latest version of Canon's New FD 200mm f/2.8. What's most desirable about it with respect to earlier versions is it has internal focusing. I wish Canon would have installed a low-dispersion element in its make-up, though, because it's prone to CA in some situations. That used to be a severe problem, but in these days of Photoshop and the like, the CA can usually be handled.
I used to own a copy of this lens -- bought it new in 1985, sold it in 1989 when I thought I was gonna switch systems to Nikon. Replaced it with a Nikkor AIs 180/2.8 ED, a superior optic. Nonetheless, the FD 200/2.8 IF had a certain charm and it was really good at what it did well.

I've been buying to sell this year so have had a Zeiss Mirotar 500/8 and a Pentax K 50/1.2 through my hands but not really shot with them. Weirdly the Mirotar went to a buyer in Oberkochen!!!

I don't have any experience with that same lens, but I have a few that exhibit similar traits -- that is, no difference in sharpness when I stop them down. I've always looked at this as a feature more than anything else, since the bias always seems to be on the plus side.

A Flektogon 35mm 2.4.
It needs some work, aperture stuck WO and focusing can smoother.
But it looks great, glass is clear.
And the price was quite reasonable  |

What's wrong with that? Most "slow" MF primes from that time have nearly identical centerperformance from f2.8 ... f8 when i use them on 24 MP FF cameras (e. g. Minolta MC/MD 2.8/21mm, 2.8/24mm, 2.8/28mm and 3.5/28mm, 2.8/35mm, 2/85mm, 2.5/100mm, 4/200mm; Zeiss C/Y 2.8/25mm, Nikkor AiS 2.8/24mm, 4/200mm; Canon FD 2.8/24mm, 2.8/28mm, and 3.5/35mm and many others).
Some of these lenses - such as the Minolta MD 2.8/35mm, MD 2/85mm and MC/MD 4/200mm - are nearly identical even in the extreme corners, using 24 MP FF, from wide open to f11!

Last additions: A bargain Tokina AT-X 2.8/80-200mm with fungus in the front group (already cleaned) and a rather rare Minolta Tele Rokkor-QD 5.6/300mm. The latter is NOT the commonly found MC/MD 5.6/300mm, but an early construction with only four lenses in four groups. Nearly at the same time i was quite lucky to win another bid, which included a 1967 Minolta lens brochure, and there i found also the lens section of the Rokkor-QD 5.6/300mm:

Canon FD 300mm f2.8L
Knowingly purchased with fungus and it is now at the technician for CLA.
I have used it before it was sent for repair and it is a very good performer even with the fungus.
Should be wonderful when restored.
