Battery disposal
Information on the disposal of old batteries
The following notice is intended for those who use batteries or products with built-in batteries and no longer resell them in the form in which they were delivered (end users):
1. Free return of used batteries
Batteries must not be disposed of with household waste. You are legally obliged to return used batteries to ensure proper disposal. You can dispose of them at a municipal collection point or at a local retailer. As a battery distributor, we are also obligated to take back used batteries. However, our obligation to take back is limited to used batteries of the type that we carry or have carried as new batteries in our product range. You can therefore either return used batteries of the aforementioned type to us with sufficient postage or hand them in free of charge at our shipping warehouse at the address listed in the imprint.
2. Meaning of the battery symbols
Batteries are marked with the symbol of a crossed-out wheeled bin (see below). This symbol indicates that batteries must not be disposed of with household waste. For batteries containing more than 0.0005 percent mercury by mass, more than 0.002 percent cadmium by mass, or more than 0.004 percent lead by mass, the chemical name of the pollutant used is located below the wheeled bin symbol – where "Cd" stands for cadmium, "Pb" for lead, and "Hg" for mercury.

Description
Pentacon Prakticar 50mm f/1.8 Lens for Praktica BC1, BX20, BX20s (Praktica B)
Condition and Limitations
Condition: good used condition.
Slight signs of wear on the body are possible (for example, small scratches or scuffs).
Fast Standard Lens for Praktica B
The Prakticar 50/1.8 adds a manually focused standard lens to a suitable Praktica B camera. With 50 mm, you choose a clear framing for people and everyday life on 35mm film. f/1.8 is the largest aperture; it gives you more exposure latitude compared to a smaller maximum aperture. The location determines how much of the surroundings remain in the image alongside your main subject.
Distinguishing the Bayonet Mount Specifically
The Pentacon system brochure explicitly separates the Prakticar bayonet lenses for BC1/BCA and their predecessors from the M42 screw-mount lenses for MTL and other L models. This distinction prevents a common confusion: The common name Praktica does not describe mechanical interchangeability. Nor is it the Pentax K bayonet.
Focusing and Pre-selecting the Aperture
The body of the BC1 is explained in the original brochure with a separate focus ring, aperture ring, and aperture-stop button. You set the distance manually and choose the aperture to suit the subject. With the intended automatic exposure, the camera determines the shutter speed accordingly. The appropriate camera-lens coupling is thus part of the shooting process, not an autofocus function.
Close-Up Range of the Model
The corresponding Prakticar 50/1.8 line in the manufacturer's brochure states 0.45 m as the shortest focusing distance. This allows you to estimate before taking a picture how close you can get to an object. For very small details, the actually achievable magnification ratio also counts. A minimum distance alone does not make the standard lens a 1:1 macro lens.
