Welcome from New Zealand!
The build of the old Takumars is something special for sure and even today some of them render pretty unique images.

Welcome, Mir. You are joining several others going back to film and from what I read here, and in a few other places, the Spotmatic is quite the camera. When you get your film developed how about sharing a few of the photos here?

Hi Chas,

Attached is a few examples:
Camera: Pentax Spotmatic
Lens: SMC Takumar 50mm 1.4
Film: Ilford FP4+
Digitized with a DSLR and post done in Darktable
