Yes, agreed. Sorry, Pat. > Much better is the M 135/3.5, a very sweet lens. Even better is > the SMC K 135/2.5 (NOT Takumar) But I think that ~even~ the "Takumar bayonet" 135/"2.5" is better than the A 135/2.8. > I sold my 135/2.8 A, it was very poor. Although I am guilty of having far too many 135's, I have to say that, in contrast (no pun intended) (really!), the A 135/2.8 was back out the door very very quickly. Fred
