I think you mean SAME lens, not SOME lens, eh?
Yeah, they all like like pretty much the SAME lens.
And also very much like my Sears Auto MC 50/2.0.
It is strongly suspected of being made by Cosina.
Some lens foundry really spewed them out, eh?

Some brands I never heard about...

The Sears I know it's a "USA import" brand for Cosina or Kenko.

But what's that vintage "Phenix"? What about this new "Horusbennu"?

Gotta love the Horusbennu use of Limited and *. Too bad they aren't also SMC.

If it had an A setting I'd think about it.

Yeah, they're all the SAME.. They're really making me scratching my head, I mean, I've seen many re-badges lenses, but not as many as these, that's why I said wow! 'SOME lens'

So, Cosina is making their lenses in China? OR, is this another Chinese clone? The Yashica one is fake, that's for sure.
