Mir is Ukrainian I think not Russian. Big difference (ask them). I have a 45mm F 3.5 medium format from that company. It's OK but not as good as the ones from Arsat although I don't think they make one in that size. Their 30/3.5 fisheye is superb. The best lens I have from there is the Kaleniar 150/2.8. As good as almost any medium format Zeiss lens. Kent Gittings

And how about MC MIR 20-M 20mm f/3,5? They are available in both M42 (I have the one) and K-mount version. In Poland it costs about $150 (a new one) and I recently bought it slightly used but in decent condition for about $80... Some say it's the best Russian lens:) Greetz Artur - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
