Originally posted by Grippy I've always avoided them too, as I have read the same. However I did read that the earlier ones are OK, this one is nice and solid, firm focus damping, and alright, won't be my fav lens by far, but fun to muck around with
The pics you posted are excellent
I have a hit and miss chinon 135mm and have also avoided hanimex thanks to the reviews. I don't know why, I picked up a soligor 28mm f2.8 made by sun and that's really nice despite the reviews ....... Really really nice

I sold one of these last week for £50. It was the original not the DDR but they are supposed to be the same. That was a stellar lens but I had a KP to pay for. Have fun with your bargain
