Erik, it's a V2 with infinity lock, going to under 1m (something like 0.85 maybe).

I have serial# 2167545 V2, infinity lock I'm sure it focuses under 1m...maybe 850-900mm.
I'll have to check when I get home.

I just bought the lens back today. I missed the magic.

Scanning was done with my Epson V700 and not the Coolscan4000ED, BTW ...

Erik, thank you !!
Gabor,
We need to talk...I need your insights with TriX.
Easy, just HC-110 dilB & follow the instructions of "digitaltruth chart", which is 4:30 @ 20 C with initial 40 seconds inversion of the tank and then 3 inversions every minute.

Hey Erik,
It is actually 22220xx
The lens needs some work, which I will commence, once, I have shot it a while, to get a feel for it.
the optical cell has slight play, while the focussing, although perfectly fine and smooth shows the tiniest amount of play, I might get away.

Eric,
I have a 2221xx example, I have always rated it as an excellent performer and much better wide open than the later examples that I owned before this one.
I would be interested in your field curvature examples.

Simon

Filmfan, araakii, maddoc and menos, thanks !
The pre asph lux has become my primary and most favourite lens now, it hardly leaves my M2. It is small, fast, sharp but not finger cutting type, a little bit of glow and the smooth rendition at 1.4, it becomes insanely sharp across the frame at above f2.
And it was also the reason why i sold my cron 35 a month ago and i have never missed it.

Hi Eric,
I see what you mean and that is indeed strange. I guess that you see this phenomenon in most images produced by your lens? I have no answer for you but it is good to understand it visually.
I don't think I see the same phenomenon but I'm open to interpretation! Could it be a sample variation?
