CZJena said:For the 20mm range in M42 family, you can also look out for the russian 20mm/3.5 MIR series. They are offered in the range of SGD130, giving excellent contrast and moderate vignetting in the corners. I owned two of these and very delightedly in taking out to shoot during my oversea travels and local streets photojournalism. This lens is designed with provision for a small UV filter from the BACK of the lens! i managed to brought with one filter on it and find this concept interesting. The lens also have slight barrel distortion but sharpness is as good as jena in the center especially when you stop down to f8 onwards. So try them out. The only two russian i like in my M42 series is this 20mm MIR and the 200/4 jupiter, recently also tried out the tessar type 50/2.8 industar (macro) with saturated results.
