I just received my KEH order. The Super-Multi-Coated Takumar 35/3.5 and 55/1.8 look nearly new
...clear glass, glossy paint, crisp lettering. They were graded EX+, and look fairly close to new. The beautiful metal front caps (one Asahi, one Honeywell) look very fresh. The build quality on these lenses is simply superb, and they make most modern lenses look like toys. How could anyone part with these?
Is there any difference between the Super-Multi-Coated Takumar and the later SMC Takumar? Obviously, the focus ring is different, but is it the same lens otherwise?
