Well done, Juan. If I'm not mistaken, Sears lenses were made by Ricoh for Sears Merchandising so it is not OT! (Soligor lenses were made by Tokina). I've seen some advertised in SA but wasn't tempted! Seems to be much like the original Takumar lenses in operation.

I suppose since this lens is M42 then it is on-topic enough to post here?
I found this lens on ebay for not too much money, and thought it was
interesting because I haven't seen many M42 preset lenses that weren't made
in the Soviet Union.

Super short, 2'34" video:

I have another short video about the FA35 queued to be posted next week.
I'm also open to suggestions, I have tons of lenses and it's hard to choose
which one to do next. What do you people think?

Some candidates:

K24/3.5
M24-35/3.5
Super Takumar 35/3.5
Super Takumar 28/3.5
Cheap/off brand 24/2.8 K mount (Marexar I think?)
Kiron 28/2 (I think this one has haze though!)

or even

Minolta 50mm macro
50mm Summilux with old dead fungus (this will actually be super interesting
I think!)
Industar 26 (50mm 2.8)
Jupiter 8 (50mm 2)
MIR-1B (37mm 2.8)

Yes I guess I do have a problem...
