I have some Cooke Triplets, a few Dallmeyers, some Dagors etc but they're not for these cameras.... But they're old....

That's a really nice image. Good old lens, that is. There's a few on ebay at the moment.

The best I can do is a 1935 Elmar and a 1935 Summar.

take a few "quick and dirty" shots to see what they come out like

I just got mine "by accident" - it was not until I checked the serial number that I knew how old it was

Quite interesting what that focus does to the spoon! Looks different then most focuses these days. :]
