*-please, note, that because of not properly made casing for Lomo 22mm, we add this lens as FREE lens in price of rest of this set; issue with this lens is, that it's casing is too high and should be more low and wide, so now it is vinetting and do not cover full S35mm and works more like S16mm lens


Set comes with:
5x front slip-on caps; 5x rear Arri PL caps; 4x spare optical blocks (OKC1-22-1, OKC4-28-1, OKC1-50-1, OKC1-75-1) added as a glass or mechanical parts donors

This is KimCamera company re-housed set of LOMO Standard Speed 35mm format lenses

This lens set needs full service before use, as all lenses have issues, that we will list in lenses description section. This lens set was not in use from 2019 Year

We add four optical blocks, as a spare parts items, that can be used to repair some lenses optical issues, like: perfect OKC1-22-1 block, nice inside OKC4-28-1 block, almost perfect OKC1-50-1 block and good front glass OKC1-75-1 block

This lens Arri PL mount is made on Zeiss CP.2 idea, so in this case, all Zeiss CP.2 system parts (like: mounts, shims, screws, etc.) fit here

ITEM(s) CONDITION:

OPTICALLY: EXCELLENT- / EXCELLENT
please, note, that this set performs quite well, as for set with so many optical issues; lenses are quite sharp as for Lomo lenses and gives good results on lens projector; we didn't test this set with camera, so we can't guarantee all those issues are nothing to worry about; in our opinion, this set should be fully serviced before any use
there are NO deep scratches (except 75mm lens - see detailed lenses description), deep cleaning marks, cracks or any other serious damages on most lenses glasses; there are NO fungus, mold, fog (except 28mm lens - see detailed lenses description), haze, separations or any other serious damages inside optical construction in most lenses; all lenses can have few LIGHT cleaning marks here and there (except 50mm lens - see detailed lenses description), but never visible by naked eye, usually faint ones, which are normal in vintage lenses; all lenses can have few MICRO marks/spots on glasses coatings, but it is quite normal, especially in Russian vintage lenses; all lenses have some MICRO pieces of dust inside optical construction for sure; this is 1970's set of lenses, so they are over 50 Years old
optical issues, that we've found during detailed evaluation of this set:
1) 22mm lens looks quite good, but it has 3/4 spot like marks (or just dust) under front glass); we add perfect 1-22-1 block, that can be used for any glass exchanges in 22mm lens;
2) 28mm lens has some 'foggy marks' inside optical construction, close to rear glass and in the middle, that are probably steam from aperture blades, but they also can be some coating damages, it's hard to say without opening this lens; lens also has some marks, spots and cleaning marks inside optical construction; front/rear glasses looks very nice in this lens; we add 4-28-1 block with perfect all inside glasses, that can be used for any glass exchanges in this 28mm lens;
3) 35mm lens is in fact in perfect optical condition, but grease from aperture blades is spilled on rear glass, so it need properly cleaning; we do not have spare block for this lens, but this lens for sure do not need any new glasses;
4) 50mm lens has some cleaning marks inside optical construction, some cleaning marks on rear glass and also some cleaning marks on front glass; all those cleaning marks are only visible under strong light, when you look through the lens; we add 1-50-1 block, as a spare glass parts, that is in perfect shape and do not have any optical issues;
5) 75mm lens has scratch on front glass; lens also has few micro cleaning marks inside and some dusty fogging (?) under rear glass; lens also has some paint missing on edges of inner glasses, but we do not think, it is optical issue; we add 1-75-1 block with perfect front glass and some good internal glasses, as a glasses spare parts
please, note, that detailed LED test is critical test and even new lenses have some issues to pass it; we just want to be 100% honest with Buyer, so we did around 20-25 min LED test with all lenses from this set, so we've spent around 3-4 minutes per lens to check and describe them really good; in general, after good evaluation, we think, that lenses can be used, as they are now, but for any professional use, they need to be fully serviced

MECHANICALLY: EXCELLENT- / EXCELLENT
focus rings in all lenses from this set works fine, but mostly unregular and dry, with some backlash / play on them; we've checked all lenses with manual and electronic follow focus units and they all work good, but they need service for sure; aperture rings in all lenses works fine, but also have backlash / play and can work unregular and dry

mechanical issues, that we've found during detailed evaluation of this set: 
1) ALL lenses have backlash / play on focus and aperture rings, which is probably because lenses are 'dry', as they were not used for many Years, so they need service and grease exchange for sure, to work good again

2) ALL lenses have grease on aperture blades, that need cleaning; this grease steam can move to lenses glasses, that generates fogging and other issues; this lens optical blocks should be fully cleaned in service;
3) ALL lenses may need proper calibration / collimation before use, as they focus to infinity without any problems for sure, but we can't guarantee any 'scale to reality' correctness;
we just mention about all this, as we want to be 100% honest with buyer; we've also did around half an hour follow focus unit test + hand test to all lenses, so we've noticed even MICRO issue; in general, even with those issues (backlash on focus / aperture rings, grease on aperture, etc.), this set is still in really good condition and quite usable

VISUALLY: PERFECT- / PERFECT
all lenses from this set can have just MINIMAL signs of use on their casings, as can be seen on REAL pictures under this set description; lenses casings can have some minimal scratches, minimal paint missing and some micro dirt in some places, but all those signs of use are mostly our tests signs of use; there are NO serious damages on lenses casings, like really serious dents or cracks; we think this lens set was never used after they were re-housed by KimCamera, as this is more 'shelf set', as it was spare set in media production company
