I do, its been on my camera a lot, its a huge hunk of glass in a plastic barrel, the hood is but flimsy.
You may look into the sigma 105/1.4 as well which has excellent reviews, is a third cheaper in price, but significantly bigger.

Thanks Fons.  The 700 grams extra weight for the Sigma is not really a workable option.

October 26.  Strolling with Industar-50-2 50mm/f3.5.

Nice street mood Akira!
Is this a f/2 lens stopped down to 3.5 and how many aperture blades?
The rendering reminds me of the 55/3.5 Micro Nikkor.

Thank you, Sten!  This is an f3.5 lens of Tessar design.  It has seven rounded aperture blades.  Unlike the 55/3.5 Micro Nikkor, the image quality is dreadfully soft at 1 m and closer.

Beautifully simplistic image.  The gradation is breathtaking.

Superb!
Good example that APS-C (x-trans to boot) works well for land(space)scapes.
