Hello guys and girls (if any),

Inspired by the Converting Topcon lenses to Pentax K blog and also driven by my curiosity I hunted down a RE Topcor 135mm f/3.5 lens off eBay.
When I received it I could not believe my eyes, this lens looks stunning in flesh. Not sure if the pictures can present how beautiful this lens is but here are some:

Look at how similar the focus grip is between Voigtlander Nokton and RE Topcon:
