He tested the lens in a m-240 citing the lens to be ‘very sharp and contrasts even when shot wide open’ with good close focus accuracy!I’ll include this receipt in with the lens for you to keep records of servicing etc.A few other issues include -the dot to show what aperture is selected had become loose and tightened itself in the wrong position before I could properly fix it, this is a fairly easy fix I just haven’t had the time to recently, it happened a few months back.-it appears that the red dot to couple the lens has been repainted at some point in its lifetime.I’m pricing it a little lower with these things considered.I’ve included a few recent photographs taken on the lens for you in the listing so you can get an idea of what it looks like in different scenes. He found there to be some fungus which he cleared, he lubricated the lens to make the rigid focusing of the version 3 a little more manageable. Also to note this was an early model of the v3 that was manufactured in Wetzlar.The lens was serviced by the very talented Alan Starkie of Cameraworks UK. So as expected there are some minor imperfections to the paint.
