The Petri Automatic 55mm f1.8 (Petri breech-lock mount) lens from 1964 is my #2 ranked Petri fast fifty. It produces lovely bokeh and is sharp!

An alternative to buying this rare lens, with the same optical design, is the Petri C.C. Auto 55mm f1.8, with an easy to adapt M42 mount. The video compares the results from both lenses.

Here are time links to different parts of the video:
