New to me K 120mm. Sample shot this afternoon, when I had a couple minutes to spare.

At f2.8

Yep it should, as both lenses (Tak 20/4.5 & K18/3.5) have 58mm filter threads. I believe one other form member is using that hood on their K18/3.5

Thanks, I found a cheap(ish) one labelled for the Tak 24/3.5, that works nicely.

SMC K 24 3.5 and K-1

I have only had this lens a couple of months and never really gave it a work out as I really like the K 28 3.5. I took a two week trip around the country and had my 24 3.5 stuck to the K-1 for most of the scenic views.

I'm also a new member of the K club (having mostly Ms and Takumars).
I got a K 50/1.4 from a member here at a very nice price (it had no caps and a little dust speck on the rear element) so I thought I would go for it.
I have a bunch of 50mm lenses but nothing faster than f/1.8 and I had heard the K 50/1.4 was a good one.

Well the lens is really nice - great bokeh, sharp and nice colors. Nice build too.
I found its a bit soft at 1.4 but pretty good after that.
I also find the focus area tends to be pretty 'thin' - you have to be right on it.

Anyway, here a shot I just took with it - SOOC low-res jpeg, no post.
I also shot this in RAW and will edit later but I think this lens is a goodie!

NB: Camera used is Sony A7III, natural light.
SS: 1/1250, ISO 125

You're making me want this lens.

Here's one with the old kit lens, 55/1.8. K-1, pixel-shift mode.

I think you need a 135 f2.5
