Not very much. It was an exchange. Someone wants an old telescope that I don't use it anymore, and gave me this lens. And I was very curios, because I have a friend who also have one like this, and he doesn't stop praising it's virtues. It's a nice lens, but this kind of photo, with manual focus, is still not my kind. As far as I know, the price on SH market is not very big, 3 - 600 Euros.
Now I saw your photos, and your flowers are also very nice.
