Nice all around lens that I don't really have any complaints about. Worth the $50 I paid for it.

Do you have problems with vignetting and inaccurate exposures?
I have a 70 year old graflex 135 4.7 that suffers from both.
I'm thinking of putting something like this on the front:
If I use too much front rise I'll get vignetting and /or softness if I shoot it fairly wide open. Other than that all is well. Inaccurate exposure is probably due to the shutter being off. I have all mine tested, so I know what the actual value of each speed it.
