Hi!
Thanks a lot. Initially I thought I could grab the lenses and use them
with my camera. However I realize it is a risky business. Also it
seems that these lenses are really nothing special...
Well, you probably saved me some money I could later part with for
sake of buying stuff from fellow
Okay, enough speculation. I'm heading to my camera closet to dig out the
two Mamiya SLRs that are buried there. Let's see, the first is a 1000TL.
It's a camera I used for about years, in the late seventies,shooting at
least 5000 rolls with it. I probably made more money with that camera
than any

I believe it has to do with the SMC lenses and the aperture simulator.

Hello.
I am given an opportunity to acquire not working body Mamiya 500 DTL
and two lenses 50/2 and 135/3.5. Since both lenses are M42 they could
be potentially used with my ZX-L. I've been wondering how good are
these lenses and in particular how good is 135/3.5 compared with
Takumar (non SMC)
It's built like a tank, unfortunately repairs might be problematic. I wouldn't
bother with the lenses however, unless I had the camera to mount them
on. The Mamiya
M42 mount cameras had a open aperture metering system which not only was
different than that adopted by Pentax but could cause

The above statement applies only to those Mamiya lenses that were
'redisgned' for the DSX
