Title: 105mm 2.5 and 28mm 2 CPU modifyed
Post by: golunvolo on December 24, 2017, 12:11:26: With the invaluable help of Erik (modification) and Bjørn (parts) I have recived this two lenses in time for Christmas. They have undergone a tight and clean conversion and now they meter in any mode, data is automatically stored and aperture can be set from the aperture ring or from the dial -if so desired- as D type lens do, setting it to the minimum aperture and controlling form the camera.

Thank you both

P.E.: just to round it up, the images have been taken with a el-nikkor 80mm 5.6 with the helicoids adapter and step ring provided by Dr. Klaus. NG gear ;)

I have the same version and I love it.

Did you send the whole lenses to Denmark/Norway or just their mounting ring ?

Happy Chrismas, Francis. ;)

Francis, it is in very good condition. I send the whole lens to Erik but he is the one to talk to about specifics.

Merry Christmas to you too

Not the same, those ones in the picture are "aristaeopsis edwardsiana", a little bigger than the Soller Prawn, both very tasty with different flavors and texture. You can´t go wrong with either :P
