All Carl Zeiss Jena Pancolar 1.4 55 have a M42 mount. All lenses come with the typical black-silver “Zebra” look. One thing you need to now about Zebra lenses is that they are radioactive (I kid you not!). Zeiss engineers experimented with using different elements to enhance the sharpness of the lens. Pancolar lenses were produced with Thorium, which is a naturally occurring radioactive chemical element. Don’t worry, thorium is not dangerous.
