These lenses are not well known, I think.
I have seen several of them on 1f bodies, so just before those with the new diaph scale (and the coating). Perhaps they are from this period: 1949-50?
On the other hand, it is quite easy to screw a new barrel on a macro ring...
Really, I don't know...
Are there proofs that some of them were produced before WW2? |

Hello Jacques
To be honest, I don't know anything about those collapsible Macro Industars, this is the only one I ever saw for sale.
To me it seems uncoated, serial is 2492 which is the lowest in the wiki.
I don't even know how this lens is supposed to work.
The wiki says some sort of extension tube is needed, maybe something like that?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Macro-Extension-tubes-set-of-4-rings-FED-USSR-/281282704118?pt=US_Lens_Adapters_Mounts_Tubes&hash=item417dc172f6
It's clearly post-war and I've never seen anything like a pre-war extension tube. So I'd guess all collapsible Macro-Industars are post-war, while the non-collapsable FED Macro lens was purely pre-war. |

Hi Christian,
Yes photos must be made with that material. But I don't know either how all that works precisely. I never tried to make photo with that.
It seems these lenses were made only during the 1f production (s/n about 210/300000). A short time... And there is no real litterature about them. If I remember, there is an explanation by Luiz? But I cannot find it.
Amitiés. Jacques. |

I found another one on SovietCams which was not listed in the Wiki, including a little bit of information.

Hi everyone!
I found three "macro" lenses like that with cameras (added to the wiki):
lens #1283 with body #244954
lens #2169 with body #253571
lens #4095 with body #252424
It seems to me that the numbering of the lenses has not been consistent. It would be interesting to see "macro" lens with documents - were these lenses standard or optional? Does anyone have lenses with cameras too (i am not sure, if my cameras are "original" to this lenses)? |

Hi Aleksandrov!
Interesting question... As far as I know, we never saw papers about these lenses. So, we don't know much about them.
My one was found on a Fed 1f s/n 22xxxx, if I remember. I should find the exact s/n. For the moment, the lenses we know are correlated with these early postwar Fed 1...
Amitiés. Jacques. |

Hello,
Another lens soon here, the s/n 7080, with an old scale diaphragm, and always without papers...
As for the 3151, it was mounted on my 1f s/n 232140.
I add that in the wiki.
Amitiés. Jacques. |

Hello,
I have received FED 1f s/n 235226 with macro s/n 8585.
In the case was the matching passport dated 30 Sept 1950. 
Cheers, Geoff |

Hi Geoff,
On the passport, is there a special mention about the lens?
Thanks. Jacques. |
