Hi Philippe,

Yes.

This in Seville, at the Plaza Espana:


And this in Guildford - it's a detail on a building in the High Street. Both shots with M7 .85:


I like this lens - I managed to get a mint one, black. late model. Results are sharp and contrasty. I've bought a 48-49mm step-up ring and a metal hood from Heavystar, but the hood is not strictly necessary in normal shooting.

The one thing I hate is that the barrel rotates when trying to set the aperture - irritating!

But given that I paid £35 for it I'm really not complaining

Regards,

Bill
