Tomioka Auto Macro Tominon 60 mm f/2.8

Hello simplejoy

Thank you for bringing this lens to our attention; I've not encountered it before - perhaps someone else here has...?

It's very interesting as it appears to post-date the famed Tomioka Yashinon 60mm f2.8 Macro lens from looking at its serial number and the fact that it's an auto rather than preset lens.

There are some crazy prices being asked for rare Tominon lens right now - such as almost £3500 on a Japanese auction site for their 35mm f1.9 in m42 mount.  They've been asking that price for almost a year - you'd think they'd have got the message by now: at that asking price, it will never sell!
