another fun video! Unfortunately, i picked up the asahiflex 135mm lens at a garage sale over the summer. now i am determined to find copies of the 58mm f2.0 (i have the f2.4) and the 35mm f4, and if luck is on my side (it is not) the 83mm f1.9. i will skip the 100mm f3.5 unless it falls out of the sky and into my hands.
105mm f/2.8. What do I know, is the prototype of the future Takumars of this focal length. I don't own this lens. Maybe in the future. Thanks for the comment.
I picked one of these up at a camera show last year. I've enjoyed using it but have found that it doesn't thread well onto my spotmatics. Have you experienced any threading issues with this lens?
Thanks for your comment. No issues with threading because I’m using it with a ring adaptor to my Sony Alpha camera. About the threading, I always pay attention to this.🙏
I've had no issue threading it to an adapter for my Lumix, but for the spotmatic SLRs, it just won't thread on smoothly. Thanks for getting back to me, these videos have been useful for learning more about my Takumar lenses as I find them
@@batmenic365StopMotion Hello, sorry for the late reply. Just tested the lens with my Exacta cameras (M42) and there's no issue with the threading. Thanks for your comment again.
Another great video Sir. Love your knowledge and how you share it. I also have the Tak 120mm and love the lens, it is quite rare.
Thanks for your comment and it is my pleasure.
Great lens. I have two!
Wow😍

“unless it falls out of the sky and into my hands”.😂😂😂 I need this lucky too. Thanks for the comment.
How about the 105mm from this same early takumar family?
