Very nice! Both of these lenses are on my search list.

Good luck - they're both pretty rare, especially if you don't want to pay a fortune.

Oh, happy day! Purchased on "Le bon coin", a French e-bay type site ... the M 50/1.4 is in great condition, but the MG is broken (jammed film advance lever plus other issues) ... very happy about the lens for the price paid ... not happy about the MG's condition, plus the Pentax case was for a ME F ... paid via paypal, but do not know if I am going to hassle/complain about the MG and its case ... win some, loose some !

Could not resist and as a follow-up ...here's the "M family" portrait in all its gear p0rn glory ... First row : M50/1.4, M50/1.7, M50/2 ... Back row : M 75-150/4, M 100/4 Macro, M 200/4. Hope this family will keep growing ... J

What a good looking family it is. And, not that I'm psychic or anything like that, but I have a feeling that it "will" continue to grow.

Jon · 08-23-2013, 11:30 PM

Nice Jean! Needs a 28mm next.

I agree ... a M 28 & a M 35 would be nice, but I already have these two in Taks ... oh, the woes of LBA

, J

Jean Poitiers · 08-24-2013, 12:58 AM

And this is what I hate about LBA ... a M 35/2 with case less than 30 miles from me, but the price is ridiculously too high ... 320€ !

Must resist, must resist ... don't worry this one will be easy to resist and it has been on this site a long time ...

Here's my 28mm ... a SupTak 28/3.5 (with caps & case), then a SMC Tak 35/3.5 (with caps & case) and a yellowed SupTak 55/1.8 ... they are a lot of fun, but if a M 28 and/or M 35 come my way, I will probably get them if it's reasonable, beacuse I am a cheap b*st*rd ...

That was the first lens I bought when I was converting from the original Pentax screw mount model (yeah, first six months of production, I'm told). The KX I bought used had an SMC 55/1.8 on it and I used a screw mount adapter with my preset 135/3.5 until I saved up enough for the M. Sweet lens.
