Thanks for the info. Unfortunately, prices of this lens have gone
insanely high in ebay. Also, the seller only ships to US (and Canada).
(Actually, I do not mind the high price of this item :)
The SP 500 was introduced in 1971. The Spotmatic which had a
1/1000 top shutter speed which was introduced in 1964.

Starting a 120 roll onto a typical stainless reel is much easier that
doing the same with a 35mm roll. With the 120 roll, you merely allow it
to curl about the hub, and then secure it under the clip. It's a no

50mm is normal because it is what came on the camera, and specifically
because that was what Barnnack (sp?) used on the original Leica.
