Oh that is so beautiful! That might just be your skill of course, but your footage makes me want to rush out and buy a copy of this lens for video work. What a stunner! Thank-you so much.

The pleasure its mine. Thanks for the comment.

thank you!

I've got the great 200mm Takumar and I imagine the 105mm is of the same quality. Excellent presentation as always...a great example to emulate. Thanks again!

Thank you again.

I own and use eight Takumar lenses. The 105mm f/2.8 is my second favorite. The 8-element 50mm f/1.4 is my first favorite.

Sorry for the late reply. Indeed, the 8 element version of the 50mm f/1.4 is a gem. Before this series, I was owning only ONE Takumar. The just-said lens.

Hello from New Zealand. Nice to find you and your Takumar. I don't have this lens, but i have nine other Takumars and this is also one i will find. Wonderful glass at a low price - beautifully engineered. I shoot my Taks on 4/3 Olympus - especially good on the E300 with the 8MP CCD (is just like shooting film), Spotmatic, and Pentax K1. I do have other vintage glass, but usually i'm not sure why! Nice overview by you - many thanks - Lkd&Subd.

It’s my pleasure you have enjoy it. And thanks for mention witch cameras you use for shooting, as I can do a search for cinematic film instead of using my BMPCC. Thanks for your comment.

Nice video! I have the exact same lens, but didn't have much time to fully test it yet.

I’m glad to hear that.

How do I know if mine is an early copy?

From the batch number you find behind the A/M switch.

When you gave the dimensions of the lens, you made a mistake, using cm instead of mm.

Thank you for your comment. Much appreciated.

Well illustrated information about the lens design and all optics' characteristics. I like my 2.8/105mm Super Takumar mounted on Pentax Spotmatic SP 'black beauty' especially because of its colour rendition. @philosimot
