Hi!

I have a set of standard speed Lomo Primes with oct-19, and I want them PL-converted.
I live in Finland, just about 400km away from St Petersburg, and I'm doing a vacation to Russia in becoming months, so I think I'll take the lenses there myself.

I found two options, both located in St. Petersburg:

-Sergey (Kravchenko?)
-Viktor from Spbsale : http://www.spbsale.com/content/pl-adapter-lomo-35-mm-lenses-konvas-2-and-8m

From what I've read and send email to both of them, I find Spbsale to be more reliable. But I would like to know if anyone has personal experience. And of course if there is some difference in the quality between them, I'd like to know that too. The prices are similar.

Thanks for the replies!

All my LOMO conversions (5 lenses) were handled by Dima Turaev. Top quality and fast service. Here's his email: dimaturaev[at]gmail[dot]com
 
I have used Viktor for several Lomos. Great work.

I could be mistaken but I think it's the other way around, Viktor does these whether you go through him or Dima. I say this because Viktor's quote was slightly less than Dima's.
 
Viktor. Great work. Add a few weeks either side for shipping
 
All conversions in Saint-Petersburg, Russia does Dima's father, and he set the same price for job for Viktor, Sergey or his son, final price it is father's price +middleman commission
 
is Sergey; Serhij(sovjak) on ebay? because i bought some from him already converted and i am super im pressed with the quality, when i asked him who did he said he did, and his price was super cheap. what kind of quotes are you guys getting from other people?

 
oh no, different guy, id love to know what viktor charges, btw im looking for a late model kinor 75mm if anyone has one to sell!
 
Moviemach, what is your price for only the PL-mount conversion for one Standard Speed LOMO Prime lens? I know it differs from lens to lens, but give me a rough price for one conversion.

Thank you
Mikko
