interesting note about the Mamiya-Sekor 58/1.7 I just received in the mail:

Mamiya Sekor 58mm f1.7 Lens Review - Lens Legend

not only is it rare (only a two year manufacturing), but also radioactive....

I see that the Exakta mount version is different, as the Exakta is not radioactive.... I'd like to see them compared.

aye - I would imagine, however, collecting an Exakta, an Argus, and an M42 mount camera together, plus all three of these rare/esoteric lenses would be difficult...
