Asahi SMC Takumar 35/3.5
This lens is often left out (likely due it's lower speed), but it is one of the best 35mm I have ever tried.
Here are some examples (unfortunately bad lighting conditions in all shots):
HR version

(bad focusing, slightly out of the bee)

Thank you for the nice pics. I have the earlier Super Tak version of this and I think it's maybe faulty, not as good as yours. But you've given me a push into trying it again! 
Where are these pics taken?

peterqd: It's ruin of castle Maidstein (Divci kamen in Czech, year 1349), South Bohemia, Czech Republic. Exactly here
The second shot could be sharper, but the combination of overcasted sky, my shaky hands and lack of IS on my Sigma SD14 caused slight blur at 1/60"

Agreed! It's a great (but rather slow) glass!
I like my copy a lot as well.

I had in the past this lens I didn't like it. Still I think any Flektogon is better deal. You have a very nice dog Koji! I would like to see some portrait from her/him. |

Flektogon is really universal lens, but under specific circumstances produces quite significant CA (not the case of my todays test). I would choose SMC 35/3.5 for landscapes and Flektogon for anything else

it is a fantastic lens, but in bright daylight when I put on a PL filter it's difficult to see through it! No matter though, the results are excellent anyway

Me too I have the Super Tak version, and I find it very sharp.
I actually have been thinking that this lens is well known and respected, I like it a lot.
A few weeks ago I had opened a thread with some samples:

How did you get the dog to watch the ball so long you could switch the angle - focus - and take the picture?

That was easy, the dog wont move until the owner, sitting on the bench, kicks the ball.

I got my M42 adapter today and tried this lens out, and it works great. I can count the hair on my nose from a self-portrait. So it may be too sharp for portraits. |
