I\'d like to start this thread for any and all who already own this lens or are interested in knowing more about it. I look forward to hearing others\' experiences with it! I\'ll also likely comment on the conversion, once I get around to it.
My copy of this lens arrived today, earlier than expected!
I have confirmed that it indeed does have a concave front element and quite intense radioactive yellowing (probably enough to affect the t-stop).
Otherwise it is in quite nice condition and extremely clean inside. Methinks it has been serviced. It is marked \"SSC\" and the coatings look to be in excellent shape.
So (of course) I have immediately taken some test shots with it held up to my 5D. All wide open since the blades stay that way by default on an unmounted FD.
I think I have found a nice thirty-five here, especially for the money I paid
