Right now, with a great help from Boris, I'm bidding on a 28MM 2.8 CSJ
I really hope that it worth the trouble to get your credit card over the
net...
otherwise i will come back looking for a cheap M42 Russian lens like Mir
or something like that at the local photo-junk stores.
BTW... tomorrow

Basically. There are two 20mm lenses from USSR, this 3.5/20mm, and another

That is not the correct mount. You will need an (inexpensive) adapter,
but will need to stop-down meter (i.e. as you stop down the ape

Made? Far as I'm aware, the FA20-35/4 AL is still in production. It
is excellent, I bought a new one the other day and it seems a superb
lens. US$500 however.

They'll probably sell for 100-300 USD, so not THAT cheap. My daughter has a

Zooms down to 18mm aren't that common, you know - for film cameras

And these cheap zooms are nasty. The good ones are way over 100$.

You may want to consider the Vivitar Series 1 19-35/3.5-4.5. Comes in a
KA/Ricoh mount that works just fine with the ZX-M, the ME Super, and other
older Pentax bodies, but you won't want to mount it on a newer AF body: it
will unforgivingly jam on the mount.

I think your "lense" is a little too wide already (it's too wide by one
letter on the right end). [Sorry, couldn't resist - .]
However, more seriously, I'm sorry, but I can't help you - I don't have an
If you want wide angle "on the cheap" you may want
to try one of these:

The A24/2.8 is definitely a nice lens, but they tend to run higher
than $100 when you can find them. The A28/2.8 is generally findable
at around $85-100 these days and is also quite a good lens ...

About the only wide-angle zoom lens I can think of at that price,
