I know CZJ lenses are highly regarded for their great sharpness, micro contrast, color rendition and build quality. I already have two M42 lenses: An Auto Rikenon 50mm f1.7 and a Helios 44M-5 58mm f2. I'm considering getting a Pancolar to add to my vintage lenses to use for shooting my Sony FX2. Would you say it's worth getting one despite being the same focal length?

I asked around in r/VintageLenses and nobody gave me a concrete answer so I'll try here. I want to get a good wide angle lens for my Ricoh Singlex TLS and a local store sells this Yashinon lens. I couldn't find too much information online about it, only that it belongs in the middle category between the Yashinon DX and the DS-M series. I want to use this lens for street photography and landscapes, but I don't know if it's really worth it compared to other models like a Pentax Super Takumar.

I know the main influence in this track is the dark atmospheric trip-hop sound of Massive Attack among other artists, but if you pay attention to the guitar tone at the intro, i feel its quite similar to "One Time" from King Crimson's album THRAK.

What other not so obvious musical influences do you identify across the album?

As I stated above, I can't find any substantial evidence of this specific lens being used on certain Hollywood productions around the time it was being sold. Are there any confirmed examples of shots/films that used it during the 70s or 80s?

I know this lens and its Pentax counterpart are quite well known for its cinematic qualities and rendering, but are there any actual records of it being used in Hollywood productions during the 70s or 80s?

I coundn't find anything about specific movies that used them to film certain shots.

Does anyone know why this specific lens earned that name?

I recently bought and sent this camera to get a CLA, I tested it with a new roll and two brand new LR44 batteries and halfway through the roll the shutter suddenly stopped working as intended and only fired in Bulb mode regardless of the chosen speed.

The camera previously fired at the fixed 1/1000 backup mechanical speed, now it refuses to do it even when I take the batteries out.
I tested it in manual and AE shutter priority and it seemed to be working fine up until the 20th picture aprox.

Do you know what could be the issue? Thanks
