Jan,
I have a Tele-Tessar 500mm f5.6 for my SL66. It is manual stop down but is a
great lens, lovely bokeh, pin sharp and with a wide aperture. Current prices I
have no idea, I bought mine back in 2007.
The serial number is 4533666 if that's any help to dating the two you have seen.
There are a couple of 1000mm f8 SL66 lenses on Ebay, very tempted with the
focal length but totally silly prices! There's also one for the 6000 series,
even sillier price. Those lenses are rare and the price is what anybody is
willing to pay...
A number of years ago, I saw a 1000mm Zeiss aerial camera lens, WW2 period, at
a militaria fair for peanuts. Sadly it had probably been used as a coal
scuttle; the glass was scratched to hell. A great shame for what would have
been a quality lens.
John

Looking at a used (non HFT) T-T 500 mm for SL 66 at a local store tonight.
They also had a pristine looking late RF T with nice case & hood last Saturday
at €700+, which always seems a bit high for a T.
How good are the Tessars on the late Ts?
