Extremely rare and interesting wide angle with M42 Electric mount, in mint condition, very good optics, one of 40 prototypes, produced in 1979. At the time, Carl Zeiss was trying to compete with high quality Japanese wide angles, after some research, the optical calculation of the Flektogon was engineered, it later lead to the Prakticar 2.4/28mm at the launch of the Praktica B but only 300 units were produced and none went onto the market, the lens comes with an M42/Canon EF adapter and rear cap.
