I am looking for a cheap Super-Takumar 50mmF1.4 with perfect aperture function, but otherwise the condition of the lens and optics is irrelevant.
It should be cheap enough to be used solely to repair a slightly defective lens.
I live in Denmark and can pay via PayPal.

How about a near mint UV treated one for $75 ???
I know the feeling of wanting to repair an old friend. Sooner or later you will find a donor Wink

Thank you, but the one I have was minty until I messed up the aperture ring.
I'll try to find spare parts somehow.

Regards

i payed 30 € for the reassembling and the adjusting of my pancolars aperture. if you need a broken tak for that reason, i think the shown tak (at ubay) is not the right thing. this one will go to expensive for your needs. and it would be really sad, to "steal" the aperture of a good working lens. in your possition i would search someone who can reassemble the aperture!

i read again... is it the whole aperture thats messed up or just the dial?

Here's a SMC Tak 50/1.4 for $45 Canadian: http://www.vintagevisuals.com/pentax.htm

Accordingly to the seller it's in a good shape, except for a dent on the filter ring.

It is in fact just the dial/outer aperture ring that is dented so that it binds. Otherwise the lens is perfect, so what I am really looking for, is a lens that is so damaged optically or otherwise (except for the aperture dial) that it is beyond repair.

Thank you, but I am not really looking for a working lens, but a damaged one, as I would hate to ruin a working one.

Nice - but postage/vat/tax makes it expensive to have sent to Denmark, where I live
