I read somewhere (pentax forum?  ) that the second version of the lens that is by which huhging is asking (6/6) is sharpest than the MC CJZ.
Is it true?

To determine the right version the seller should look at the back of the Auto/Manual swtich. Ask him which number is engraved there. If it's 43812 then it's the right version (6 elements in 6 groups). And yes, it's a damn sharp lens!

I do not think it correct to say that the earlier version is not sharp. It is. But the later version is sharper - especially wide open. The early version is not a dog by any means. I have owned one for years and its turned in many excellent shots. I think that the earlier version seems more common that the later one - at least they turn up on auction sites more often.

How is the bokeh from the lens?

I have one. It's not bad, but not stellar either. Quite an average 135mm with decent contract and so-so sharpness. It's only slightly faster than f/2.8. In this focal length, I would prefer a Contax Sonnar 135/2.8 or Nikkor 135/2.8, both great sharp lenses with excellent rendering.

IN M42 (like the TAk 2,5/135) you have a lot of good 135s too.
CZJ 3,5 or 4; steinheil; 37-A; tak 3,5 1st version; etc.
In others mount, you have the elmarit, canon L, rolleinar, etc.

Yes, I forget it.
I had it for a week or so, and never try it by miself. My wife and my son used it but not me. It did not attract to me, but I ignored the fame of bokehmonster in this time.
If I find one in very good conditions and cheap, mine!!

On the front element it says " asahi super multi coated takumar" |
To determine the right version the seller should look at the back of the Auto/Manual swtich. Ask him which number is engraved there. If it's 43812 then it's the right version (6 elements in 6 groups). And yes, it's a damn sharp lens! |
Hello Peter,
What about 43801 engraved there ?
Thanks in advance.

43801 is the Super-Takumar with 5 elements in 4 groups, not S-M-C.

I have the later K series version of the 6-6 lens. It is a lovely beast. I did a quick and dirty comparison to my DA* 50-135mm lens and it held it's own.
You can see the results here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/31364196@N04/sets/72157622375653089/
The only odd thing is that if using "Auto white balance" on the K10D/K20D you get a very different value than more modern lenses. Either editing the white balance on the RAW images or setting the camera to a fixed WB gives better results. I don't know why the older lens confuses the Auto WB.
