ASAHI PENTAX SUPER TAKUMAR 135MM F3.5 M42 MOUNT

I received the Asaha Pentax Takumar 135 f3.5 this afternoon from aHitomi Misu all the way from Japan. A clean, perfectly working unit as per description. I was very pleasantly surprised by the size of the lens and immediately set it up on the Sony A7S and took it out in the garden for a quick test run. Here are some of the images and a short video on Youtube.

As of this writing I have several versions of the Pentax 135mm:
1. Asahi SMC Pentax 135mm f2.5 (6 groups in 6 elements) K mount
2. Asahi Pentax Super Takumar 135mm f3.5 ... this lens in M42mount
3. Asahi SMC Pentax 135mm f3.5 K mount

4. Asahi Pentax Super Takumar 135mm f2.5 (6 groups in 6 elements) M42 mount.

I hope I don't go get more ... the first f2.5 do have a bit of fungus at the far edges of its front element!

SUPER TAKUMAR 28MM F3.5 ON MACRO EXTENSION TUBES

More images while pottering about in the living room due to crappy weather outside. I attached the Super Takumar 28mm f3.5 to a 10mm macro extension tube and shot with the Sony A7S + K&F Concept M42-Sony E adapter. I'm starting love this lens already ... definitely no regrets!

Shot fullframe @f3.5 ... I guess I could also go with APSC crop for an even tighter frame!
