canon serenar 1.9 ltm and Bessa R ?

[iñaki]

Anyone uses a Canon serenar 50 ltm with a Bessa R?

I think it would work, but it´s a collapsable lens so I don´t know if it can be used in a Bessa R or not (like the Jupiter-12 I bought 1 year ago, just before reading in RFF that it would damage the sutter 😱 ).

Also, how much should I pay for it?

The Serenar 5cm f/1.9 lens will work on the R when extended but is likely to strike something inside of the chamber if you try to collapse it. If I wanted to use it on my Bessa "T" or an "R" (which I don't own) I'd use a plastic trie-wrap around the lens' barrel that would allow me to collapse it most of the way but not far enough to damage anything. There's no law that says you have to collapse it all the way.

BTW, my Serenar takes a very nice picture.
