I've shot these two Auto Yashinon 50mm f/2 m42 lenses on a couple Yashicas that I used to have, and I kept the lenses for awhile thinking I'd get a few more old cameras, but decided to sell these and hoping one of you can put them to good use.
These lenses render colors super well and produce very sharp images that I've been quite happy with.
Optically, these lenses are near perfect with a very minute amount of dust inside the elements that is hardly noticeable. No apparent scratches or marks. No mold. No cloudiness. Lens torque is normal. The iris on one of these lenses snaps down quickly as it should, but the other closes about half as fast amid stopping-down, and with a quick clean of the iris it should snap down as it should. Both lenses will come with rear caps and 46mm UV lens protectors that have always been on them. One 46mm UV protector should be replaced as there are a scratches on it, and I've simply used it for protecting the lens in storage. Also, I have one original Yashica lens cover that I'll include.

Price: $45 (International EMS shipping included)
Paypal payment only. First come, first serve. I'm shipping from South Korea (where I currently live) and items normally arrive quite quickly, usually within 7-8 days.
Thanks, everyone. Let me know if you any questions.
