Hi Jens I have the SMC Takumar M42 1.8 85mm lens and it is one of the best primes I own in that range and the metal construction is just wonderful to handle. I don't know about the/a K version. I use the M100mm Pentax prime often because I seldom carry the Spotmatic F but usually the ME Super or a Ricoh body, but made some wonderful photos with the 85mm and the 35mm M42 SMC Takumars on the Spotmatic F this autumn. They seem to be quite rare here and I saw the last one go for over $300 on Ebay. greetings Markus
