Over the past 42 years, my progression of SLR brands has been Mamiya ->  Pentax ->  Nkon 
->  Contax ->  Olympus ->  Pentax. I could have saved a lot of money by sticking with 
the Pentax.
These days the biggest difference in performance between brands is when you buy 
the body.  The K-x has high ISO performance that exceeds flagship models of 
just a few years ago. In a few years, iPhones will have performance that 
exceeds that.

Oooh!  Let's talk about the Super Takumar 135 f2.5. That's always fun.

I did a fair amount of shooting last weekend with the k-mount 135/2.5.  I don't 
think that it's quite as sharp as the 135/3.5 but that extra stop really helps.

You can pick the Pentax 135s up on fleabay for about $70.

If you can get the SMC- Pentax [K] 135 f2.5 for $70.00 you've gotten quite a bargain. If you pay that much for the Takumar Bayonet 135mm f2.5 you've been rooked.

I paid $35 for a Soligor 135,  but that was in 1968.
