Spotmatics are the most common ones. Ebay has become a tough place to find bargains. In Europe anyway. Since Brexit it has become even less interesting. _________________ pentaxian |

Yeah, prices are high for Spotmatic. But I grabbed a nice grubby looking Super Takumar 55mm f1.8 on a Zent 11 just now for a good price. Hopefully grubby = more character. Thanks. |

You should look in Japan. Film camera's are popular again due to the analogue hype. Via Zenmarket and Buyee on Yaho auctions you can find the more common Takumars very cheaply. Sometimes jus 1 yen when you are lucky. Zen market also offers on stop shopping and bundling as part of the standard fee. You pay VAT ahead so there are no customs charges (this probably depends on where you are located). _________________ pentaxian |

If you find errors in the camera-wiki page, let me know to correct them
Most of the information comes from Gerjan vanOosten's book and the takumarology website which are linked in the article
Thanks
