Hello,
First post to the Forum.
I´d like to share a couple of shots taken with the Vivitar 135/2.8 TX mount. I played around with m42 lenses, but the lack of infinity focus turned me towards the vivitar/soligor TX/T4- line.

The lens:

Both shots wide open.





The barbeque shot is taken today, still lots of snow.
Thanks for looking,
Sami

No,It is a forum function your first post can not contain images or links (Anti Spam feature) but when you make your 2nd post all should work.. Very Happy Don't worry all first time posters wonder the same thing Wink
Nice results!

I just got one of these lenses on ebay for 15 bucks shipped... And I am assuming its similar because it seems like a tx or t4 mount from pictures I've seen...


How did you take those pictures? did you mount it on a DSLR? I have a canon 7D and I want to know how I could possibly attach my new lens to my 7D. I can't find any tx to eos adapters on ebay

any words of advice helps, thanks

If not direct, maybe you have to go to M42 first.

You need to get a T4(or TX)-Nikon, T4-M42, T4-Exakta mount first, and then an adapter from these to Canon EOS. I think there is also a TX-PK, but I've never seen it.

There are also T4-Minolta, T4-Canon FD, T4-Miranda, etc., but these are not adaptable to your camera.

There is a TX-P/K mount but no T4-P/K mount.
