I sold the one I had just because I did not use it anymore and is was mint, 
which put up money for another M6. Yes, it is a Visoflex 
lens. Works with Viso I and II,III(OUBIO adapter is needed for II & III). I 
used on a Visoflex II. Bit cumbersome but it took nice 
portraits.

My coating was mint so I had no problems.

Some Hassy users have used it with adapters.
