I wouldn't want one of his lenses if he was giving them away. He lives in the tropics and that's how he stores his lenses? Can we say FUNGUS HEAVEN? Seriously. The only other person I've ever met with that much gear uses a climate controlled room with banks of UV lights to store all his stuff and he doesn't live in Indonesia. It's an impressive collection, sure, but how long will it last stored like that?

I think there is a line between collector and hoarder. Especially when lenses don't ever get used and are just withering away. I'm sure they could go to a better home, where they would be a productive member of the family

Actually, the Pentax and M42 stuff besides the CZJ lenses are not interesting at all. *No* Takumar primes? So, no, not really interesting to me except as an exercise in excess. And his photographs are probably much worse than yours, because he can't figure out what lens to use. And in answer to what he's holding, it may be the 85-210MM Sun pistol grip, or one like it.
