Your examples indicate that the Biotar produces nice results. I had, at one time, a very early version of that camera series, which did not have a removable lens. I can't recall why I let it go, but, perhaps my Leica kept calling. Thanks for sharing. Does your camera use the Exacta-type lens mount? I noticed that some of them used this mount.
