that you can stop down to f/4 - f/5.6 and still be within
an acceptable limit
You need to go back to basics
I've never thought of auto ISO, but I expect that might
work with an 'M' lens that has had the aperture lever cut off
and possibly with a preset-lens as well.

Well, it has one bid now, so if that is a good bid, the item will at least sell.
A dealer methinks.

I assume the big gold star on the 200 macro isn't original?
No chance of getting this one for the same price as Unlocker
paid £855

Most of my relatively bargain buys have been auctions with a high starting price ......
K.
I was the only bidder and got it for 1p
I couldn't live with that so I sent the seller £3
and told him to keep the change

Can't beat a 99p start to encourage bidding...

The 'M' 35mm f/2.8 should go for about £60. Make sure that
when it's stopped down to f/22 the iris opens and closes
quickly as you flick the projecting lever on the back of
the lens, whilst it's not on a camera. It's a common fault
with this lens and usually frees itself after a few flicks.
It does later return though
