That's some good snow you got there  First one is my favourite. The 21M is 200mm isn't it? Is it a heavy beast to handle?

Yes, apart from being pretty huge and heavy, the J21 is a great lens!

A month ago I found one for 35 E and do not buy it because I have a Sonnar 180/2.8 P6. And I really regret, but then not know which one to use.
Great pictures, greetings.

Your composition is ok but I think you should go out and buy yourself an SMC Takumar 200/4.
It probably costs the same these days and a much better lens.
Or at the least, the older Super Takumar 200/4 or Takumar 200/3.5 |

I think the results will be very different, the Jupiter is a Sonnar.

That may be the case, but the J21M was never one of the better lenses in their lineup. For that, check out the J-6. |

I use and love both my SuperTak (560g) and J21M (950g) 200/4's, but what I'm most likely to carry around and USE is my little TeleTak 200/5.6 (410g), which is very nearly flawless. Alas, the SuperTak 200/4 now sells at an inflated price, the TeleTak less so, and the J21M rather less. I've never used a Tak 200/3.5 (850g).
Correction: I just checked eBay and both the ST200/4 and J21M are in the same price range, US$70-100, while at least one Tak200/5.6 has a BIN of US$60. (Mine cost US$29 two years ago.) You recommend the Jupiter-6 180/2.8, but those cost around US$200-300. My wife would kill me.
PentaxForums.Com has a database of lens reviews. Here: the S-M-C/Super Takumar 200mm F4. Here: the Takumar/Tele-Takumar 200mm F5.6. And here: the Takumar 200mm F3.5, almost as heavy as the J21M. All receive very nearly identical ratings, just below 9/10. Alas, there are no comparable reviews of the J21M.

Yeah, that is precisely the point. The SMC Tak 200/4 is a lot cheaper than most people think. I should know - I sold one for a lot less than I expected it to fetch.
Heck, I just sold a SMC 300/4 and it only fetched US$250. |
