Hello and question about WW-Eximar 24mm 1:3.5

Ricardo Vazquez · 11-22-2017, 08:20 AM

Hello Everybody,
I'm new to use old lenses with mirrorless camera (Sony a6000).
I already purchased a Super Takumar 50mm 1.4 (yellowed) and the photos looks really good. Now in Summer It has 2 hours daily of tanning to see if can be removed the yellow tint.
Now I´m looking to get another lens for landscapes or just a little more wider than Takumar 50mm.
I was looking a WW-Eximar 24mm 1:3.5 in a local store, but I can't find some info on goggle!! (incredible, even when I tried in deutsch!)
Anybody have some info about this lens? Price? I can get it for $60 (us dollars).

Thanks!!

Thanks for the answer! Finally I got another 24mm Takumar and Tamron 80-250, both for $50!

I was reading about the yellow tint on the Takumar 50mm and I want to share my experience.
Reading somewhere (don't remember where) somebody says that using a LED light from IKEA got good results to remove the yellow tint from the lens.
I decided to try with a lantern from Nitecore, it has a high power LED MH20GT
After 24 hours (and patience to recharge the flashlight every 2 or 3 hours) the change was great! Removed almost 90% of the yellow tint form the lens.
It's supposed that LED light don't emite UV light... but anyways it works.
Somebody know how it's possible?
