Here is the humble start of my Takumar collection. I have quite a few older K-mount lenses, but now I have fallen in love with the fine, old Takumars.

My first two: S-M-C 85mm/1.8 and Super-Tak 20mm/4.5:




The Super-Tak 20/4.5 looks so good on my Pentax K10D:

Lars

EDIT: I can see my pictures in Preview, but not in the Forum - why not? They are not more than 900 pixels wide
ANOTHER EDIT: Now I can!?

Thanks, no-X.

I have tried to post a couple of shots with the 85mm in the Pets thread, but again, the pics didn't show, so I deleted my post.

man...how many beautiful Taks here, specially those presets...and I had thought I owned quite a few, but you guys...envy here..

All the taks are splendids, Congratulations for their owners!!

What about the pre-set takumar 105/2,8. It seems to be little and light.

It's good lens too?

Rino.


it s a small, light, and good lens
zewrak had once made a thread with some shot of his.

I have a beat up copy but it works well, since I have it I prefer using it over my S-M-C and Super Takumar 105/2.8



( had posted this photo at zewrak's thread as well, but it should be featured here also )

I reckon if you didn't know anything about lenses and bought only old Taks, you wouldn't go wrong at all. I love the old Tak glass. Shame the prices are going through the roof Sad

Nice lenses people, great to see them still being enjoyed Very Happy
