recently I had discovered the Auto Takumar f2/55, a Ultron design which, according to Taunusreiter, had set this design as industry standard. It had been issued at a time when Pentax seemed to have experimented with various designs, there also was a 'Heliar' Takumar f2.4/58 and the Takumar f2/58mm, the only 'Sonnar' normal lens ever made.
I am very happy to have found one recently
here the first shots on the first day out using the lens. Taken on Pentax K-x around 'Ikoma', Osaka, Japan:
here it's set ( for full size views resp. some more pics ): http://www.flickr.com/photos/kuuan/sets/72157624940446285/

thank you IAZA for looking and commenting, and Carbon for your correction.
second day with this lens, and it got me puzzled:
out of the cam contrasts are very low, and I am not sure if I better left them as such or accept what e.g. 'auto adjust' does to the images
first one I left near to 'auto adjust' which increases contrast and blacks a lot,
next three these are lessened in an increasing degree,
last one contrast and blacks are still increased but is closer to out of cam than to 'auto adjust'
anyway, enjoying this lens a lot..
best greetings,

I'd say that the lowered contrast is normal for this lens; my copy has it too. It's perfectly normal because of the many air-glass surfaces and the very simple single coating. I bet you'll notice it flares easily too. The lower contrast pictures are easily corrected in PP of course.
The lens screams for a hood, maybe a 100/135mm hood works best. _________________ Peter - Moderator

yes Klaus, I remember that there were two for sale in Japan, and then one went, and I had the feeling it was you. The other one which had been offered more expensively was not sold first, but then reappeared again with a cheaper price and I could not resist any longer.. _________________ my photos on flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/kuuan/collections |

thank you Peter, there was no way I could pass on this lens!
I had expected low contrast just as with other early lenses. However I had not expected that 'auto adjust' would lead to such a very decisive difference, bigger than of any other lens I have tried so far. I guess sometimes the low contrast should be left untouched, but increased contrast and blacks make for very interesting images too. That leaves me undecided how to treat the photos in PPing, I guess I must decide case by case.
Oh yes, images are washed out very easily with direct sunlight from the front, this lens certainly requires careful use.
I just got another Auto Tak 2/55, even though I already have ( more than ) one, just because it comes with an original metal hood. I think it will fit and look cool, though a collapsible plastic hood may be more practical, and I may get one too. _________________ my photos on flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/kuuan/collections |

the f2/58 sure is not the sharpest lens, but it has a very distinct character and the bokeh proves what is said about Sonnars. I also like the colors it renders very much.

this one could be more of 'photographer's creativity', though certainly not planned or framed carefully, but simply shot and curious how it will come out

Yes, and much older in design, but it's a rangefinder lens. By the time reflex cameras commercially exploded, the lens coating was already a consolidated reality, and the faster planars replaced the slower sonnars as fast standard lenses (while Tessars remained as slow cheaper standard lenses). So this Takumar is quite an oddity for it's time, I figure one can truly call it a Retro lens. _________________ Orio, Administrator

hm..I'd think not all that easy, outside Japan very rarely to be found. CarbonR may know better, he may have been lookig for one for longer.
In Japan they can be found but also rather seldomly, and if they appear in Japanese auction then usually together with the socalled 'Original Pentax' camera which makes it not a cheap buy.

..How hard are these lenses to find? |
hm..I'd think not all that easy, outside Japan very rarely to be found. CarbonR may know better, he may have been lookig for one for longer.
In Japan they can be found but also rather seldomly, and if they appear in Japanese auction then usually together with the socalled 'Original Pentax' camera which makes it not a cheap buy.
