Oops, I had it as a 35 but it is really a 30mm fisheye. I corrected my post above.
I bought mine on eBay with a 645 mount on it. From what I read the mounts can be changed but they were also produced specifically for Pentax 645 at some point. This mount looks to be a pretty integral part of the lens so I'm thinking it was one of the ones produced for 645.
I bought a lens that looked just like this last year that was a Zeiss Distagon 30/3.5 with a leaf shutter in it (for Hasselblad so I adapted it). It was $900 but still cheaper than our newer 645 UWA options but unfortunately my copy had problems and I returned it.
I had read about the Arsat
here and decided to set up an eBay alert for one. Eventually a 645 one came up (for $100 more than stated in that review, but still pretty cheap) and I grabbed it. Totally worth it!
