      Yashica 50mm F/2 ML C/Y Mount Lens

      these two were made in the same factory and I have both and they are optically identical - both superb lenses

       

      the Pentax 25mm F1.4 is a great little lens and ok  at 1.4 but very sharp and usable at f2 - I use mine at f2 always

  2. Hi Andy Lee,

     

    I'm contacting you regarding the issue with Ebrahim Saadawi. We've received the rangefinder and found a buyer for 550,- USD. There is a fitting issue though. I first thought it was the redstan clamp, because the thread on the SLR shows no irregularities. But after contacting SLR magic this is what they replied. Please see attachment.

    And to understand the problem please see the first part of this vimeo link: PASSWORD: REDSTAN

     

    What should we do? We're at a point where we just don't know anymore. I'm about to inform the buyer, but he might pull out or want a large reduction on price. Right now it also looks like this RF sample was just a beta tester that Ebrahim got for free.

     

    Best Tomas

      Hi Tomas,

      thanks for letting me know about the problem you have with the Rangefinder.

      It does look like ES has sent you a prototype version of the rangefinder with a different irregular thread on the back of it , its not a production model .

      Dont forget ES is a liar and criminal so it does not suprise me he has not told you about this issue before hand .

      I sugest you just sell it and get as much money as you can , if you send it back to ES you will never hear from him again and you have lost everything then.

       

      you could try and add a step ring on the back of the Rangefinder , so if this can attach on to the RED stan clamp then attach the rangefinder onto the Step ring ,maybe with Araldite glue? - just an idea.

       

      thanks

      Andy
