One of those, $5 lenses.

Quite literally, but for what I got it for - basic macro, so far so good all things considered.

5 x 5 ? A Bargain Experiment (CPC MC 70-162mm f/3.5 AUTO ZOOM Macro) | SKVORA LIMITED

TLR- $5 lens bought as is, tests begin starting with macro extension and well, some macro style shots:

Always fun to play with a new lens regardless what it cost, congrats.

That lens is a gem in itself.

Heck of a deal and looks pretty good, pics look good too.

Great deal! looks like you're having fun playing with it too

5 bucks? That's a steal. Nice shots.

Since I was short 1 back cap either way, I went ahead and ordered some more + front cap for this thing. Can't quite take it out for a real spin without protection, nor do I want to keep my better glass without a cap in favor of this one.
