Fungi? Thanks for the tip.

It's a mix of dried sweat, skin oils, actual sloughed off skin cells, and fungi! It's what happens when fingerprints run amok. A DNA lab would have a field day with that. Most vintage cameras have that to some extent, but... well ... whoever owned that originally must not have washed his hands much.

Hi Guys, how about a Hapo 66-E with the lens Enna Haponar 75/4.5?
Any one has photos shot by this lens?

Yes. It's a wonderful lens, as long as the lenses are clean. If the lens is dirty, you can't expect good negatives. Take a laser flashlight and shine it through the lenses. You'll see all the imperfections.
I had an experience when I bought a HAPO-66E and immediately used the film. The result was cloudy negatives. I had to disassemble the lens and clean the lenses until they were spotless. And lo and behold, a miracle happened! Superb sharpness and contrast. So, the lens isn't as important as the condition of its lenses.
