Hi Mike
I'm sure that you will love the results. It may be a bit hard (dark) to

I love some other Takumar M42 lenses as well, mainly the 35mm 3.5 and the 85
mm 1.8.
Today I really missed a wide fixed lens on the K10D, reminds me that I have
to test the Tamron SP

some pre-Spotmatic M42 Takumars
Welcome to the world of Pentax's pinnacle of lens series production.
Now you know why I want a true M42 DSLR. To use those classics!
BTW, this is a superb performance lens in the macro range, but nothing
special at infinity, dont judge it by that
