I have the Super-Takumar 135/3.5 and do use it occasionally on digital. I also have an excellent Vivitar 135/1.9, which gives very good results, especially considering its maximum aperture, and that it was designed in the early 70's!

I had a K-mount 135/3.5 mf lens and it was quite good, but slower than I wanted so I found a 135/2.5 which I don’t think was quite as nice, but does a lot better in really low light. -- Larry Colen l...@red4est.com -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
