Not that far off the old standard of 70/80 to 200/210 surely?

BTW. The 50-135mm is gorgeous but I didn't post before as I have no experience of the other two.

I thought they were largely over-priced. Also, by grouping things in the way they did I found there were items I wanted but bundled with a whole lot of stuff I didn't.

Excellent images and a really great variety of them too. Very versatile!

Welcome to the site and best wishes, Kris.

It may be funny looking but I'd not say no to one. It just isn't near the top of my want list at the moment. When my leg money comes through I'll be in the market for a long lens but not sure which one yet.

Zelox appear to have made darkroom equipment so your original suggestion it is an enlarging lens seems likely. When you say "non focus" do you mean it doesn't have a focusing ring? If so, then the only way to use it sensibly would be on a bellows for macro work.

We did have a non-scientific straw poll about this a while back. Sadly, I am one of the people for whom the SDM failed and as I have only one SDM lens that makes it a 100% failure rate.

It is my favourite building bar none. Well so far, but it is hard to beat. Let's hope the shoot can be arranged.

I think "Glowing Hope" sums up my photographic efforts nicely!

Does the lens say "USSR" on it? It could be an Industar 50mm lens. Alternatively it could be a Leica! Does it fit on the Leica?

Early Zenits also used M39. The rub is that if it is a lens designed to work on the rangefinder, even if you get a M39->PK adaptor (available on ebay) you will not be able to focus the lens on infinity. If it is for the Zenit, you should have better luck.

We need a bit more info on the lens and the camera to be of more help.
