Helllo to all

[iko]

My name is iko and i am new here
And i have the pany g1 +14-45 and 45-200
and some oldy voigtlander\ultron lenses with adapter
i was thinking to get a cheap jupiter 9 but i understand that the m42 mount is better than the m39 mount so my question is what is the right one ?


Thanks
iko

Welcome iko! It is a nice lens and the M42 is a simple adapter and a lot cheaper.

Thank you Michiel but my meaning is which lens is better the one with m39 mount or the lens with m42 mount ?

Can't find any quality difference between those 2 versions, only individual quality differences, on the internet, but did not check it myself. Only have the M42 black version. A bit soft but good bokeh.
People say the older versions had better quality control, still from Zeiss personel.

BTW My M42 version is not a very easy lens to handle with it's ackward located and thin diafragma ring and preset ring on top of the lens.
