Hi,

Up to a few weeks ago i had the three lenses listed, but i didn't test the Orestegon on my 5DII before selling it Crying or Very sad ...

Thus, i would say:

SMC Takumar 3.5/28
Meyer-Optik Gorlitz 3.5/30
Meyer-Optik Gorlitz Orestegon 2.8/29

the first one being the sharpest and the last one the softest ...

The problem with the 29/2.8 is that the copy variation is huge...I needed something like 7 copies to find a good one Shocked

I only have the MOG 29 and, although I haven't don extensive testing, I don't see that as the sharpest lens in the box. Have you any samples?

I don't have some samples from the Tak 28/3.5 here right now, but i just found this thread on an APS-C in the 'Best of Lenses' gallery ...

I don't have the time to take some sample shots right now, but i think it would be hard to do better ...

It goes something like this Wink :

2.8/29mm 7 copies
1.8/50mm 7 copies
2.8/100mm 7 copies
2.8/135mm 7 copies
4/200mm 7 copies
4/300mm 7 copies
.

.

Nevertheless i am huge fan. When you find your copy you cherish and adore it.
