That must be a different formula from the S-M-C Takumar 105mm f/2.8.
Doug Brewer calls the S-M-C version "a jewel" and it has great bokeh.
This lens has great resolution at f/5.6 and 8.0.
I wouldn't give mine up...
Perhaps there was something wrong with your K version, or the formula is
indeed different.
I am very curious as to whether this is the case. According to Boj and
Dario, they are both 5-4 designs with the same minimum focus distance,
but the K aperture goes down to 32 and the filter is 52; the S-M-C is
22 and 49 respectively. These don't necessarily suggest a different
formula, do they?
