austrokiwi Pillar of the Community 2087 Posts	Posted 06/13/2016 2:36 pm Don't know the make. Have a look at the photo of the rear element it looks like there are marks on that element. But its only $35.00 I wouldn't expect wonders from it. Report this Post to the Staff
rmpsrpms Pillar of the Community United States 4038 Posts	Posted 06/13/2016 8:15 pm I have sold this lens as part of several setups, with good results. I also included it in my "shootout" of ~100mm lenses. Here's a link to the thread: https://goccf.com/t/249531&SearchTe...0mm,shootout And here's a direct link to the shootout page at my website: http://www.macrocoins.com/100mm-lens-shootout.html The 105mm Tominon ended up in the middle range of quality. edited to add: The Tominons have M40 mounting threads, so you will also need an M42-M40 adapter.
