I bought mine (SN 889xxx, first version LTM) for $225 from a member here at RFF. It is mint and came with original front cap and bubble case.
 
I love mine, though the previous comments about haziness apply. Still, it's a great little lens.

I have the f2.8 one (M-mount, googled, SN #1665555) and love it a lot. It also was my luckiest deal ever. I got it for $267 on the ebay and it came minty. Now I will never part with it.

Wow. Nice shots everyone. I am keeping my eye out for this lens. I think that I will get one of the M-mount versions now that I have my m4-p.

marduk - $267??? That's an amazing deal.
 
Great pictures, marduk, all of them.

What film do you use?

Erik.

Thank you. They are from the different rolls:
1 - Ilford HP5+ in Perceptol
2,3 - Neopan 400 in LC29
4,5 - Tri-X in D-76.
These are all my favorite films in the ISO400+ range, but when it comes to HP5+ I prefer to expose it at E.I. 200-250 and develop in Perceptol stock for finest grain and great tonality. I also have some examples of APX100 in Rodinal in my gallery.
I will probably try to print some photos in the darkroom today. Sorry for hijacking this thread ;)

My Summaron 35/f3.5 is a lovely little lens, but I haven't used it enough. The only two examples I can find of mine online are:



and...



The second of which is simply a test shot to see if it worked on a new camera.

I have used it for other things, but not for anything I've put up on the interwebs.
