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.
