  1. I got this Pentacon auto 2.8/135 MC (M42) literally for $10 and came with a Praktica body and a Tessar 2.8/50 Carl Zeiss Jena DDR. It is in almost new condition cosmetically but the focus ring is very stiff and there is a little "play" between the mount and the aperture ring, I figure both problems are probably fixable. I bought a Novoflex M42 adapter for it. For a telephoto, it is very compact and it is built like a tank plus it has an integrated hood. I walked around the neighbourhoods this weekend a took a few shots. I was really surprised by the results. Focus was a bit hard to do wide open because of the stiff focus ring and I didn't feel like using my tripod so I got a bit of softness but overall most shots were quite sharp.

  2. Got this manual focus shot of an Osprey coming back from fishing in the morning out front of 'Tween Waters Inn on Captiva Island, FLA. Strange that I am more at home with manual focus lenses on this A7 than with my Zeiss 24-70.
