Beautiful looking lens. It is a couple of years younger than that though, the Auto-Takumars weren't made until 1960...
Please, someone buy it.... !!!

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

Kris, thank you for your post.
The lens is very well designed. I like very much the position of the aperture ring, a little bit further from the mount.
Regards,
Álvaro

Hello
That is correct, this is a M42 mount lens, so adapter is needed.
Thanks for your help spinno.
