Latest Review Posted | SMC/S-M-C/Super Takumar 50mm F1.4 Rather hard to achieve good focus at f/1.4 even with my Spotmatic compared to my other M42 mount lenses.
Mine was rather yellowed, but using the NÄVLINGE LED work lamp from IKEA cleared it up in a matter of days.
Because of the small count of aperture blades, it leads to weird aberrations and strange, unrefined bokeh.
That being said, it's my favorite 50mm lens I've ever owned and is just so much to handle, and look at - it's gorgeous. |
