As you have the lens, you are the best judge of its quality. Remember it may need a good cleaning first. He does also say that he has never heard of an Astro Berlin Pan-Tachar 125/2,3, rangefinder coupled, or any rangefinder coupled Astro Berlin lenses for that matter. Why not drop him a line as this is his area of speciality? Marc James Small <msmall@infi.net> Mind you Ps and Qs as he does not tolerate sloppy spelling!
