This is a used Soligor 28mm f2.8 manual focus
lens with a T2 interchangeable mount; an M42 screw mount (Pentax/Praktica/Zenit) is currently fitted - if you would prefer a different mount
please check with me, I have a few others (but may not have rear caps
for some of them). I don't have any mounts for mirrorless cameras. Focusing is
manual; stop down is manual by the preset ring method.
This is in poor condition and is sold for spares only - there is fungus and dust which is reducing contrast, the external surfaces of the glass have severe polishing marks, and the focal scale is badly out - it reads about 10ft when pointed at an object 200 yards away, and focuses well "beyond infinity". There is cosmetic damage to the filter ring but filters do fit. The iris (8 blades) works well, the blades aren't oily. I'm supplying it with caps and a cloth
storage bag.
I
tested operation on a zenit body and took test pictures with a Sony A3500 mirrorless camera with M42 adapter. Weather was an overcast
afternoon with heavy cloud.

As
always I'm starting low and with no reserve. I'm separately selling
some other photographic items. If you buy multiple items from me please
request a combined postage invoice, I'll do my best to get it down to
the lowest possible price. I do not make any profit on postage. Postal prices rose at the end of March.
International buyers:
The postage price shown is based on an estimate of packed weight,

final price in the EU and some other countries.
