Is this a usual beat-up prewar FED lens or I am missing something? What is Fullrotate?

Yuri,
Such lenses can be found with early Feds only (type 1 or 2).

Regards,
Aidas

Aidas,
I see now. I did not even know such lens existed. And it looks like an easy modification - replace a longer pin with a flat head screw, and put that long pin instead of the short one. It is also interesting that they switch from meters to centimeters.

...and only know I came to eBay seller site and noticed that he offering usual Industar-11 lens ... Maybe mistake with photos ...

Below I will place a real photo of full-rotate lens.

Main difference is changed sequence of distance scale on the lens. If the standart Industar-10 has 1.25m to infinity, full-rotate one starts from 0.5m - infinity. Seems to be usual Fed lens becoming Macro. This is very rare lens, but the price is far away from reality ...

I have seen no construction differences from all subsequent FED (Industar 10) lenses. I believe "Full rotate" is because the lens turns in its axis when focused- Like Kiev lenses. FED lenses from Industar 26 have parallel focus.
