I dropped by a second-hand electronics store today, and they had a couple old lenses:
A Cosmicar Television zoom 22-66mm f/1.8 - I was baffled to see a zoom lens at f/1.8, but it's C mount, which is too small for EOS anyway. I'm htinking the quality is not that great, given it's a TV lens.
Mamiya/Sekor SX 55mm f/1.8 - M42 mount, which is convertible, and it sounds good, so I may have to grab that.
Danubia 500mm f/8 (72mm thread version) - T2 mount, also convertible, it's fun just for the crazy size of it, and image quality is supposedly good for the price.
But here's the strange one: Dixi 135mm f/2.8 - I can find no references to it on the web whatsoever. I'm not versant in mounts yet (only know the above due to some googling afterwards). Anyone got any idea what it is?
