Originally posted by JP_Seattle Thanks for weighing in everyone. I knew the asking price was too high and I could not afford what he is asking anyways, so I was just trying to determine if something like this should actually be in my price range of 250-300.
Also, very good to know that the Super Takumars are not multi-coated.
Thanks!
Just to be clear, while super takumars are not the same as SMC Takumars and later pentaxes, that does not mean the lenses are not junk or the coatings are really all that bad, I have a really old takumar preset, and it is an excellent lens, and does not exhibit any where near the flare that lesser makes of lenses ffom the same vintage produce.
But the other side of the issue is, are these going to be every day working lenses or go out and play with lenses.
That may dictate which you select
