Today I was at any auction one of the camera items I got is this lens:" Voss 1:35 135mm Piesker Berlin W-Germany" It M39 lens. It lighter than the Canon 135mm M39 lens. I founded very little information on the internet about it. Has someone use one? Good lens? Junk Lens( I hold not I pay $70.00 for it.)

I have a Piesker Exakta mount folding bellows, no experience with their lenses. Looks interesting, though. Can it be rangefinder focused?

I just googled your lens and found information on it including your question on UHH. It seems to be for a screw mount Leica and similar cameras of the time before Leica went to the present bayonet mount system. Adapters can be bought cheaply to make your lens usable with some present day cameras.

Thank you for the information, the lens will not focus, so the question is dead and the lens is off the trash can. Oh well, can't win them all.

Before trashing it there may be somebody who would buy it for parts on ebay. Just a thought.
