I've bought my Orestegor 4/300 (ser# 4564824) in the early 80-s.
Due to it's size and weight it's not one that I "drag" along by default but when I need light and clarity it's my favorite.
And yes, bu current standards if't heavy, large and the manual diaphragm is something frowned upon in these days but the yielding quality certainly compensates.
To be honest I think the older, fixed focuslength, lenses (decent brands atleast) outperform the new standard lensen.
I recently stumbled across a 50 mm F1.7 Ricoh lens for Pentax and even from the display it shows clearly that the resolution and the brightness is a lot better than the standard zoom Pentax packs with the K10D.
