Hi,

this week I could grab 2 lenses.

Tele-Takumar f:5.6/200 in near mint condition. I believe this one is better than my loved Super-Takumar 4/200. Here are some shots





LeitzTelyt-R f:4/250 in near mint condition at a very fair price. I knew thats only a question of time I would buy Leitz/Leica lenses Smile





Thank you for viewing and any comments.

I like the Takumar shots - very crisp and natural. I've photographed something similar to the yellow flowers only today.

I agree about the Takumar 5.6/200, thats a fine one.

The Telyt is a prize it seems.

Oh, did you get that Telyt on EBAY?
I was watching one of that kind, but without wanting it.
The one I watched went for a great price!

Yes, may be that you were watching this lens.

I paid approx. 127,oo €. This lens is Ser. 1 and was manufactured between 1970 and 1976, minimum distance is 4,5 m. Thats really not state of the art.

But I will tell you the whole story. I couldn´t resist and bought some days ago an unused R7.

In 1982 I bought my first Leica R4, several years later a M6. I sold the R4 in the 90´s and changed to Canon EOS5 and AF, and the M6 2 or 3 years ago because it was a difficulty to change the film.

So for the "new" R7 I need at first some cheap lenses to play around. Wink

Oh sorry, some information are wrong. Only for the protocol :

Closest focusing distance is 4 m, so the lens was manufactured between 1976 and 1979.
