Ok, the beauty has arrived. Rokkor 21/2.8, larger than expected.

sweet! it is pretty. lookin forward to some pics. i'm guessing it won't be as good as your contax g for landscape, but will be nice for closeup wide open sorts of shots.

Here are some shots with it (21/2.8). There are not much colors here nowadays and I think this lens needs it.

Payback time:

Not as sharp as Contax G21/2.8 (but what is...). Small F.

Anyone have an opinion on the Rokkor-X 28/2.8? I saw one yesterday pretty cheap -- about $20. Worthwhile, or a waste of time?

It is definitely not a waste of time.A very good lens ,comparable to 28/2.8 Zuiko or SMC Pentax M 28/2.8.Pretty sharp,nice Minolta colours.

24/2.8 MC W.Rokkor SI (AKA Elmarit 24/2.8) is an amazing lens.It can easily compete with Distagon 25/2.8 C/Y.

Here with NEX5N at f8:

The same applies to MC W. Rokkor 28/2 which is sharper in corners than 24mm Rokkors and also shares high IQ with Distagon 28/2.8 C/Y

NEX5N,f8

I'm pleased that there are still 15 other Rokkor lenses on my shelf that I will give a try in the near future

this one has all the sliders jacked up to see just how funky i could make the bokeh (warning may cause permanent eye damage):

Just got the Rokkor MD 35/1.8.
Brought the lens to the lens repair shop but unfortunately the repairman could not make the lens to focus to infinity and he gave up. It only focuses at 10-11m max.

By the way below is the lens mount photos. At infinity focus. And as I mentioned before it can only focus 10 meter max.
I think it's difficult to remove or shave the black part (red arrow). Or is it possible?

I'm wondering if the lens was serviced(re-lubed) and the helicoid was put together wrong, I did that recently and it will mess with infinity.

Or maybe the rear EF mount is too thick. I am thinking of sanding it down Any suggestion of sand paper type and the way how to do a precise sanding?
