Taka, the K-mount 300mm is optically different from the Super and SMC Takumar. The 2 separate back elements of the screw lenses became 2 doublets. I'm sure Pentax did it to lower a bit some aberrations. I own the SMCT and like it. The Super-Takumar is probably as good as the SMCT, as multi-coating gives very little more to a tele lenses with few elements. Cheers, Andre -- - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
