Having a K1, now is the time to shop for vintage glass. I'm looking for a good 135mm vintage portrait manual lens that given an original vintage special character, to mount on K1.
I looked here (
http://stores.ebay.com/Foto-Koeberl-Graz?_dmd=2&_nkw=135mm+M42 ) on ebay, there are plenty of old manual M42 lenses of all kind of brands, but I have no clue which one is a lemon and which one is good enough. Could anyone having a good knowledge of manual lenses recommend a couple of lenses that aren't too expensive, decently sharp in the center and given a special vintage style. I'd like to shot manual for portraits only to achieve vintage style prints (do different from everyone else using a Canikon 70-200 to do portraits).
