Thanks for the excellent images, they will soon be put to good use.

And @Ole :
Am I confused or is there some confusion with the data on the
Super-Takumar/Auto-Takumar/Takumar 135mm F3.5 lens review page?
The specs charts include this info:
"Variants
1: Takumar 135mm F3.5, chrome and black, close focus 200 cm
2: Auto-Takumar 135mm F3.5
3: Takumar 135mm F3.5, all black, close focus 150 cm
4: Super-Takumar 135mm F3.5, model 1, same 5 element optics as the predecessors (this lens)
5: Super-Takumar 135mm F3.5, model 2, 4 element optical design
6: Super-Multi-Coated Takumar 135mm F3.5, same 4 element optical design as the latest Super-Takumar"
Shouldn't number 3 be number 2?
In the notes on variants I have listed the lenses in the order of their release per the data I had at the time of creating the entries. Granted, those dates are somewhat uncertain in that my various sources disagree and I have to decide which one to trust the most!

And on the late, all black Takumar's spec chart its MFD is listed as 180 cm, unlike in the summary text above.
150 cm is the correct number. I have corrected the database. Thanks!
