A few months ago, I got my hands on a Carl Zeiss Jena 50mm f2.8 lens to use on my Spotmatic. When the lens arrived, I realized that the lens extended about this much >< too far into the body and the mirror couldn't clear the back of the lens, so I couldn't use it with the Pentax. I'm still hunting for a nice Praktica FX so the lens can have a real home, but in the meantime, I bought myself some extension tubes, put the shortest one on the Spotmatic, and mounted the lens.
I finally got around to playing with it. Here's the Zeiss Jena debut with Tri-X:
