(this one contrasted up a bit)





















Comments: Mine was abused by a previous owner. Filter ring is damaged, a poor attempt was made to cut the aperture ring to make it an AI lens, plus the glass is looking hazy. Still, capable of some nice, if dreamy, photographs.

Compare to my nicer sample here.
