Thanks eselite. I didn't know they had koalas in Singapore!

It's the Super Takumar 55/1.8

Hey fractal, from what i can recall when i was studying in Brisbane, the koalas actually are the most bought souvenir.
I bought a few too and distribute to my friends.

K20D + S-M-C Takumar 50mm f/1.4. I'm having a little trouble focusing this lens. I might have to invest in a Katzeye.

Available Light 1/60s @ f/4

With Flash 1/180s @ f/16

Hello,
I'm new to the forum and the world of photography. After consulting all the pages of the club
takumar and saw the beautiful pictures that club members have taken. I have not your talent but I
thought to the purchase of 2 or 3 lenses. Can you help me in choosing?
Thanks
Eric

Consider the 55/1.8 and the 28/3.5 or 35/3.5.

I suggest S-M-C 1,4/50 and 2,8/105 or 1,9/85. Wide angle? S-M-C 28 mm.

Good luck.

I can definitely recommend the S-M-C Takumar 28mm f/3.5!

Je peux certainement recommander le Takumar SMC 28mm f/3.5!
