Unfortunately the filter ring is dented as can be seen in photos. But here is a photo that was
taken immediately after this unfortunate accident using THIS lens for the cover of the
March 2000 issue of Mobilia Magazine - you can see for yourself that this did not affect
image quality - lens is SHARP. The dent can be fixed by a technician and since the
lens is recessed, no hood is needed.

Provides open-aperture metering with
Pentax Spotmatic F, ES, ES II. Fits Ricoh, Mamiya/Sekor, Fuji, Hanimex Praktica,
Sears, Yashica and most M42 screw-mount cameras.

This lens is
designed especially for close-up and macrophotography. The magnification range is from 1/2
to infinity, but by using the Auto Extension Tubes (not included), you can shoot from
infinity to larger than life size. The automatic diaphragm enables you to shoot difficult
moving subjects, while holding your camera and looking through the viewfinder.
For the price of a generic lens (that will produce inferior pictures, wear out
prematurely, and disappoint you) why not buy the best 50mm macro lens ever made for
your screw-mount Pentax or compatible camera? With proper care this lens will
last a lifetime. You will not be disappointed!
