All this talk about the Heliar reminds me of some talk a while back 
(here??) about a Russian 15mm in screw mount.  I've been sort of on the 
look out for these but haven't seen any on Ebay.  They were quite cheap as 
I recall, with an aperture of 6.5 (?)  Can anyone point me to a web site 
with these lenses described and perhaps for sale?

thanks.

John
