My own 135 opinions: A* 135/1.8 - a superb low-light lens. VS1 135/2.3 - a joy to use (if only the focus ring didn't turn "the wrong way" - <g>). K 135/2.5 - sweet, my most-used 135. Takumar Bayonet 135/"2.5" - a pretty good lens for the money (if you don't spend too much, of course) (and if you don't really mind the silly colors on the barrel - <g>). A 135/2.8 - well worth selling... K 135/3.5 - nice, but I just don't get around to using it much. YMMV... Fred
