In fact a Super-Takumar (it does not have to be cocked manually). Currently I have a Takumar 55/1.8-only week - this is just for fun and several other members on the Dutch Pentaxian forum are doing the same. Part of the assignment is also to shoot wide open as much as possible.

Here are my results from day 1. Enjoy!

Hi Peter, very nice images as usual. For this quality the lens is a bargain. Like an insiders´tip. #9 is my fave.

Shocked Shocked I was picking my faves, but the further I got the more foolish I felt - one's better than the other and they all are fantastic, you're really showing off this fine lens here

Ohh yess, great captures Peter. Love the bokeh.

#5, #7, #9 have something special.

Cheers

I certainly feel flattered, thank you!

Yesterday's (uninspired) shots (all at f/1.8 ):

ISO 1600:


ISO 3200 pushed 1 stop in RAW (so in fact ISO 6400):



Today's masterpieces (still at f/1.8 ) Very Happy

Translation: "Danger?


Drive safely!
