No flaws in the optics that would affect the image. There is slight brassing on the focus ring and a slight flat spot on the top rim of the lens. The colors of the numbers on the ring are dark and dull. It may clean up with glass cleaner, but I left it as I acquired it. Quality wise, I'd rate this lens equal to an M42 Takumar 50mm f/1.4 and maybe even the Pentax-K 50mm f/1.2 as far as sharpness at f/8. Color rendition is very accurate. It is a chunk of glass!

Very slight brassing on the focus ring and Auto/Manual lever.
History: This lens used to belong to Peter Fronk who was a renown photographer in the 70's for the San Francisco Chronicle. If you Google his name you will find many photo credits in old articles and you may find a few galleries featuring his current work of art and photography. The reason I know this lens belonged to him is because the lens is inscribed with his name and driver's license on the barrel, like he took a stylus and scratched it on there. Perhaps all photogs in his day did this so no one would bother stealing it (paronoid?). So grab a piece of history with this old classic lens used by a somewhat famous photographer!
Beside the name carved onto the barrel and slight brassing, the lens in in pristine condition with perfect optics. Comes with a lens cap in a little case that fits the lens perfectly.

This lens is absolutely beautiful with excellent quality. The cleanest and shiniest M42 lens I have ever seen. Regular lens shoots 1:2 Macros. There is an extension Tube that goes on for 1:1 shots. Comes with the original Soligor Brand lens cap and barrel case.
I am the original owner. This has been in my closet for over 35 untouched. I probably used it once then switched to the ME-Super with all K-Mount lenses.
