First post here after much lurking.
I just acquired an Asahiflex IIA with 58mm 2.4 in remarkably nice condition (fully functioning as well) - I was more than pleased with the price I paid ($300), considering how clean the lens and body are, and that it also came with a host of bits and bobs.
To my surprise it was the end-of-run M42 mount version (both body and lens) - I'm having quite the time finding any info about just how rare the M42 IIAs are.
I have no intention of parting with it, but I guess it would be nice to know what kind of bargain I got (if any)
Thanks for any info or pointing in right directions you can give me - I've attached a couple of photos of the item for your perusal
