Latest Review Posted | S-M-C/Super Takumar 300mm F4 Bought this off a forum member. SMC Super TAK 300 F4. Can't afford a new 300mm prime so......
Pros - $$$, did I mention $$$. Full Metal Construction, Very Sharp, Built in Hood, Leather Case,
Cons - Fully Manual
I agree with much of what has been said about this lens already. With modern software though the purple fringing issues are almost irrelevant. If you take your time with this lens then you will get very good results.
This is a really nice looking and feeling lens. It forces you to slow down a little and thus think about what you are doing. This is a plus in my books. It looks awesome mounted on my K20D. There is no way I could justify spending $$$$$$$$$$$ on a new type version of this lens for my shooting needs. If you are on a budget and you don't mind manual mode or Av priority- you can't go wrong with this lens.
Picture Update:
Taken with the K20D, through my patio door to a feeder about 20' away. MINIMAL PP...no crop https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/members/37399-sawicksted/albums/9540-2015/picture86387.jpg |
