Nice shot from the *ist DS, especially considering it is that old. Maybe just the clouds are a little off? Very old shot too, I see, I was 12 in 2005 Regarding the lens, how do you feel about sharpness at 100%? I can't seem to get rid of some abberations even closed at f/8-f/11.

Hi, yea *ist Ds is nice it has some problems and keeping date is one of them...otherwise it is nice cam.
About sharpness, well I don't know. Mine does not seem to focus well at infinity, when you PP. But lets say from 0.40 - 7 m. It is quite sharp, even @ f3.5, if you nail it. As for aberrations, well it is a old lens but mine is okay. I usually shoot @ f8.

So the shot is recent after all...
Anyway, I like mine because of the focal length, although it could have been a tad brighter.

I acquired a 55mm f/2 SMC Tak with an SP500 a few months ago but didn't use it as I had a 50/1.4 and my experience with the K 55/1.8 is not the best. Despite being optically very, very similar, I'm surprised by the Tak and much happier than with tthe K.

A couple of my niece, both taken between f/2 and f/2.8:

Recently become re-interested in Takumars. I have a Tak 55 f2 on an H1a that I've had since the mid 60s. It's been in the closet for years. This image was made with a newly acquired Super-Tak 50 1.4 on my K-5.

A few taken over the past couple of weeks during a 2200 mile ride.

Taken with either the Super Takumar 28mm F3.5, SMC Takumar 55mm F1.8 or Takumar 135mm F3.5 Preset.
