IMHO this is the one of the best nifty-fifties ever made. I’d take it any day over a contemporary Leica Summicron at 5x the price. I took one of my favorite photographs ever with this lens on a Canon P. It was a different copy, but Canon’s QC was good—I’ve had several and they’re all excellent.
Anyway, this comes with an Urth-brand M adapter and a front cap that fits too loosely (it just needs new felt). Optics are very nice for the era. A little internal dust but no real sign of haze. The front are rear elements are pretty clean for a 1950s lens. There are some cleaning marks, etc, but the coatings are good.
Focus ring and aperture are good. The infinity lock can be unscrewed and put in a safe place.
