This is a Carl Zeiss Jena, Pentacon 6 multicoated lens made in East Germany, it includes an aluminum Pentacon to PL mount adapter.
The lens has a Duclos standard 32 pitch focus gear and is nice and smooth, it focuses to infinity with the adapter, it's a little low contrast wide open like a super speed but sharp from f4 on, in fact it matches super speeds very well. There are a few pieces of dust internally but nothing that affects imaging. It is a converted still lens.
I'm also including a pentacon 6 mount 120mm Russian lens that's OK at f4-5.6 and a spare 180mm Zeiss lens for parts.

$Sold in LA or shipped on your dime.

I have one of these and they really are lovely lenses for the size, and weight. A bargain to be had ;-)

The famed Olympia Sonnar....For those of you that don't know, a stash of Zeiss Jena lenses were used to film The Master. Granted those were probably older, singer coated models from the 50's and 60's....but the designs didn't change that much.

This MC lens looks AWESOME.

Run, don't walk...to get this.
 
Carl Zeiss Jena SONNAR MC 180mm f/2.8 is awesome lens. I have one of those in PL mount and i'm very happy. If You are thinking "is it worth this money?" my answer is YES ! It's worth even more !
