I have the Yashica version of this lens and I love it. I have a Contax Zeiss 35 and 50. I primarily shoot vintage class. I’m currently building 2 sets, a FD set and a Contax Zeiss set. I have two Minolta Rokkor lenses also.

Have you shot any Yashica lenses? I’d be curious to see if the Contax is a better lens. I only paid $55 for my Yashica.

Do you have a particular brand of lens adapter that you'd recommend? I also use a Sony a7ii and might be interested in trying a vintage Zeiss or two. Thanks!

In the vintage lens world, the Contax zeiss are pretty much the best there is except maybe the Leica Rs.

I found a trio of vintage soviet medium format lenses for $70usd near my home. A 150mm f2.8, a 85mm f2.8 and a 60mm f3.5. They are pentacon six mount. The brand is (maybe) Kiev or something, the letters are cyrillic, so I can't read them. The 150mm have a dent and aperture doesn't work properly, but the glass is perfect. Are they worth the 70usd? I would need to buy an adapter too
