Has anyone heard about this lens? Is it good? I searched the forums and didn't find any mentions. I saw it on eBay. Just curious.

I have not encountered your reviewer before.

I think this is a more realistic review.
Particularly the warnings of the lens being around 70 years old.
Far less praise for the lens's performance.
