lucky you! wish you this lens becomes as dear to you as mine did to me - my fav. lens, mine had cost me abt. 10 USD, and that in a used camera shop in Osaka. there not every lens was cheap, from what I have seen mint sometimes even cost more than in Europe, but if looking well used they often come surprisingly cheap. 'mine' then was quite yellow and it's body is a bit beaten up, but it works so well and has taken my best photos

Hi Martin
Congrats, you had find a great lens (my favorite 50 mm in M42) and the price, well, not comments.
Did you use the S-M-C before? If not, I hope that you like it. It's really good.
My best regards, Rino.

I'll be using this one over the next few weeks so not a problem but when packed away I'd like to keep the glass clear.

The SMC lenses should not be so yellowish like the S.T.. They are different lenses.
When I bought mine It was yellowish too, and in @ one week under UV light, all OK.
Mi experience was that. Good luck.

my S-M-C actually was more yellow than my Super Tak.
never tried to de-yellow, the lens has been mounted on my camera that much that it got enough exposure to sunlight to make the yellow tint go away by itself
UV light, sunlight. There are people around who are more knowledgeable how to do this right. If I remember right they wrap the lens in aluminum foil and expose it to sun with the rear lens up. Now please anybody correct me!
hihi, hopefully it will often be on your cam, not packed away 
I would think that the yellowing does not return that fast. But that's only a guess.

Thanks Rino - It is an S-M-C not the later SMC. Which I think is the same as the ST.

Well, it may de-yellow over the next couple of weeks. However I have many lenses (at the moment) and photography is taking a back seat whilst I'm pursuing other things

How much did they want for the super tak?
If you can get that for £5 I would gladly pay for the postage lol
What an amazing bargain, I never get decent stuff around here.
I went to a boot sale a while back and was excited when I finally saw a few lenses only to realise they had fungus, "brand new those love, still have the box, £20 for the three of them"
It was time for the "I might come back for those in a while" then run tactic!

Excuse me, I didn't be exact. I refered to the S-M-C, and it's a bit different lens than the ST.
1.The rear element is 1 mm more big in the S-M-C.
2- The aperture ring has more space between the F/ 1,4 and F/2 in the S-M-C than in the ST.
I think that both have the same formula but are differet lenses, and have different rendering too. Till I know, of course.
Rino.

just as Rino explains, we had a thread about these findings:
http://forum.mflenses.com/smc-and-s-t-1-4-aperture-ring-t24255,highlight,takumar+++50mm.html
and I just noticed that there I had promised more photos which never came. So sorry. Hopefully I will remember to do that later, once I have access to the both lenses again ( which only will be next october  )

How easy is it to get rid of the yellowing?
I'll be using this one over the next few weeks so not a problem but when packed away I'd like to keep the glass clear. |
The SMC lenses should not be so yellowish like the S.T.. They are different lenses.
When I bought mine It was yellowish too, and in @ one week under UV light, all OK.
Mi experience was that. Good luck.

Thanks Rino - It is an S-M-C not the later SMC. Which I think is the same as the ST. |
Excuse me, I didn't be exact. I refered to the S-M-C, and it's a bit different lens than the ST.
1.The rear element is 1 mm more big in the S-M-C.
2- The aperture ring has more space between the F/ 1,4 and F/2 in the S-M-C than in the ST.
I think that both have the same formula but are differet lenses, and have different rendering too. Till I know, of course.

OK, I thought the S-M-C and the ST were th same formula (cosmetics aside).
Are you judging the rendering based on digi or film (or both)? I as as I've a 24mm ST that is fantastic on film.

What a bargain - I had to pay twice that for mine!
A face tanning lamp - with strip lights in - works very well for removing the 'yellow'. I cleared a couple of very tea coloured Aero Ektars this way. The sun just isn't bright enough round here.

To complicate things, there is an early version of the Super Tak that has 8 elements in 7 groups. However the 2nd version of the Super Tak and the S-M-C and SMC all have 7 elements in 6 groups. The last run of the Super Tak and the 1st run of the S-M-C Tak may have similar coatings, i.e. the Super Multi Coating that was publicized in 1971.
Here they are from right to left. The S-M-C, Version 2 & Version 1

The S-M-C also has 8 aperture blades and both Super Taks have 6.
