So glad you are pleased with it - I hope you get plenty of use out of it

Received MX and lens all nicely packaged, many thanks John.
Tested the lens today on the K1 and I am always surprised how good these little fifties are, especially closed down a bit, a bit of dust but I'm capable of cleaning out no problem.
Next week I hope to film test the MX little beauty.
As to the timer 'problem' - I watched a chap on youtube demonstrating the timer, and it behaved the same, so maybe that is how they operate normally ? I'm pleased and well chuffed as they say
This is a distance shot (not the best to demonstrate the 50) and cropped in camera to maximum, the detail is IMHO is brilliant.
As for the 50, it’s about the best price-to-performance ratio I’ve seen. A couple of years ago you could easily pick one up for somewhere between £10-20, which is insane for how good they are (as you’ve found out)! Nice one

I'm fairly tempted by one or the other, but perhaps both...

[quote:3496ace15f="Benz3ne"]Is the Pentacon 50/1.8 still handy?
I don’t NEED any more 50’s but I’ve always been curious about that one…
Thanks, Kris.
