"Bonjour" gentlemen ...
I went this morning to a photo swap/expo at
Aulnay-de-Saintogne and picked up a few goodies.
But, what's more interesting is that I took the
Angénieux 90/1.8 with me to collect some interesting info. I showed it to a "veteran" vendor (that I trust) and the lens is an Exakta mount that has been converted to Rollei ... he was kind enough to show me a real Exakta mount that he had and "bingo", almost a perfect match. So thanks to his kind input, I am pretty sure about that aspect now.
What's more interesting is that I presented the lens and body to a "professional buyer" (see first image with
"Achat" sign) at the swap and he offered me a nice sum for it despite "bad mouthing" that condition of the front element and the altered mount ... an offer of 600€ is not bad IMHO. I did not bite since I plan to take the
Angénieux to the Paris swap in June to see what can get for it ... this one may very well finance my "dream project" for a nice 67 kit ...
Here's some images from
Aulnay ... and still pinching myself for the thrift store find of the
Angénieux ... yes, I really seemed to have "lucked out" big time here on this acquisition.
