I had intended for it to be a stop-gap measure 'til I got a Summicron or something, but haven't gotten 'round to that. In fact, I haven't even done any real "testing" of it, to be honest. Oh, I've used it plenty, but haven't really printed anything which I *knew* was shot with it (OK, I've got my jacket on: Go ahead and blast me!). Most of my prints wind up from my Skinny Tele or last-version Summicron 50; a handful of the old 50 too, for its "look." Anyway, I don't have it in front of me, but I believe it's a Jupiter 14; supposedly a copy of a pre-war Biogon.... Thanks Scott
