Take a look at this eBay listing http://cgi.ebay.com/Lens-Schneider-Symmar-f-5-6-50mm-M25-Mint_W0QQitemZ7556816756QQcategoryZ30062QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem for a 50/5.6 Symmar convertible to 90/12. I had no idea these things existed, checked Schneider's archive and couldn't find it there. It isn't mentioned in the Vade Mecum either.
Does anyone know what it was made for?
I can't image using a barrel lens on a 35 mm SLR. Even though it seems to be offered with an adapter to Nikon F, the little voice in the back of my mind tells me that it should have too little back focus to work at infinity on a Nikon.
Cheers,
Dan
