Super Takumar 1.4/50mm 8-Element "killer" vs 7-Element Sample Comparison

Thanks for shooting the comparison and posting it here!

Very interesting comparison. I did not appreciate the colour pop that an 8 element could produce and will certainly keep a look out for an 8 element.
I have a 7 element Super Takumar currently, which I sometimes use instead of the FA50 f1.4. I like the convenience of the FA50 but prefer the wide open bokeh and rendering (not to mention lovely build) of the Super Takumar.
Although interestingly my Super Takumar does seem quite prone to flare - more specifically contrast washes out in bright light. A good hood is essential on mine. That said maybe mine has seen better days (it has a very minor spot of fungus on one element edge).
