Hi, everybody, recently I started to do some extensive testing of my Fujinon zoom 4.5/75-150mm. This is one of those bulky but slow zooms with modest zoom...
Hi. I received the lens, from a german ebay seller, today. Is it normal that when I change the f-number of the diaphram there isn't any click from one number...
If yours is an early version it will not have them - a manual lens. Click stops were stage II in the development of lenses, supposedly to keep clumsy fingers...

Thanks for your reply. But if there is in my lens a preset ring I don't know how to use it. I don't want to break the lens trying to move something that isn't...
It may be a manual lens instead of a preset. Mine is like that, and with no click stops. Using a preset is a chore anyway. Better sometimes to just use a...

All right!!! . :-) I try it and it is as you said me. I'm using it on a Dynax 7xi. Thanks a lot :-). Now the next target is a wide-angle(21mm) and a 200mm...
(In reply) - The questioner asked about 21mm (never seen that focal length), so the closest that regularly show up on EBay would be the Zeiss Flektogon 20mm...
Hi, I have the 4/20mm Zeis Flektogon and can say that I am quite happy with it. There is also a later 2.8/20mm version which is regarded as being superior. But...
... Speaking of wide angle, someone mentioned a Sigma 24mm M42 screw mount. Are there specific camera models that this was made for? I can't seem to find one...
For those of us who happen ALSO to have Russian cameras, Oleg in Russia (a very fine repairman) has stopped taking in certain models, likely due to scarcity of...
Seen this post at the Zenit camera list, from member Joao: http://www.celler.ru/forum/index-25/topic-119573.html It's in Russian. If Zenit can pull this one,...

(In reply) - The Jupiter-9 has had a LONGGGGG model run, and could have been built in more than one plant; and came in black or chrome. I've got a black in M39...
hi wisnu, welcome! There are many types of Jupiter-9. Not including those Zenit M39 ones which ebay sellers sometimes add an M39/42 ring to and sell as m42...
(In reply) - For sheer convenience, it appears that the typical EBay buyer wants the fuller automation of the Super Tak. Mine came from a collector, and is in...
