| | Got this lens a year ago, thinking it could be used for wildlife; the first thing to notice is the build quality lenses like this aren't made anymore. The lens is around 8 pounds and shooting handheld is near impossible, I recommend a good tripod if you plan to use it. The lens comes in three different mounts EXA, P6, and M42. Feel free to buy any since you can swap the mount later. Is a bazuka over all and it makes all the other lenses look small, I had the luck of building a small collection of East German m42 lenses and this one is a keeper. | |
