a new hobby - to collect old stuff? One good tip - Zeiss Flektogon 20mm/2.8. A good lens. You don?t use such wide angle as I see but this is a good lens. You get nice 32 mm with your digital. Try to look for it.

Ahah, Thanks man! Must try a shade for the super tak and have a look at it again, I'm wondering if the issue was lack of contrast with more than softness. Will take another look. Was reluctant to get another 135 when the dream was a 105 in any
case.
Just bought a Makinon 35-105 2.8 for the cost of one and a half rolls of ilford! Another uncelebrated lens but could be amusing.
Just won an auction for a petri 58.
For one roll of film.
Oh the joys of bottom feeding.
Thanks again.

A friend of mine told me that the Pentacon 135/2.8 should be even softer than your Takumar and that the Takumar is better.

I will ask someone here. I think that some of my friends knows this lens, it was very common here. I have got M42 Zeiss Jena 135/3.5 Sonar and it?s a good lens. I will inform you.

Seriously though Oto, there is a pentacon 135mm/2.8 for sale for the price of about five rolls of Illford around and am wondering about purchasing it for some hand held candid portrait shots at a friends wedding in a few weeks. I've searched it on the web and someone claims to use it proffessionally for newspapers (black and white). I gather though it is not a celebrated lens. I already have a supertak 135/3.5 that seems soft at 3.5.
I've offered the price of one roll of illford film but just a touch reluctant to go al the way with this one.
Want something I can shot fast to accomodate my hand shake with a shallow field. She's a large girl and I'm told the longer the lens the kinder to her.
Of course becomes 210 on the digital.
Got an opinion about that lens?

just a remarkable bank of fog anf then pulling pink and blue up with some very anonymous software. Wo that Pentax SMC M 67 800mm ?/6,7 ED (IF)! On my digital of course it was a twelve hundred.
Wish I still had that... brings back memories, (sniff)... and I could have pawned it for about sixty odd 33 year old super takumars.
The shadow really happened, perhaps what I like about this is I can't tell my camera isn't straight.

it seems that you have got lots of lenses and you use them just once. Every one of your last pictures was taken with different lens :-). Wide space, loneliness, the bird and the reflex - i am thinking about how much was done with software. For example the shadow of the wood has strange direction, the reflection looks also suspicial, the angle is not the angle of 800mm lens :-)... Anyway - I take it as a surreal picture and I don?t care how it was done and I like it very much.

The stupidity of reverence to habit
the comfort in the narrow path
like the safety of a hollow laugh
in circles of friends
who know you like a book
full and let you fall from foolish wings
from the sky ofi deas
to the hell of dreams

Bizzare (and beautiful) coloring. Makes me thirsty....go figure!
All the sad young men...Sitting in the bars
Knowing neon nights...Missing all the stars
All the sad young men...Drifting through the town
Drinking up the night...Trying not to drown.
