Opinions are divided in our home about this yellow chair. To tone it down, it's partly covered with a blue throw. Our cat loves it.

I've not applied any PP to accentuate the effects here. Just a touch of lightening/darkening. The lens did the rest!

I've been working on a comparison of the Takumar 58mm f2.4 with the Takumar 58mm f2. (Both introduced in 1957). This is one of the many new photos I've taken for the review.

Hopefully, I'll be posting a YouTube video on this soon.

In the meantime, it's a similar scene to the Cosinon 50mm f1.7 photo I posted here:

Snapped with a Takumar 55mm f2.2, early preset version.

This lens was manufactured from 1957. It was sold with the Asahi Pentax Camera (the 'AP'), and other early Pentax SLRs, as an alternative to the Takumar 58mm f2.

It’s a Gaussian design type, with 5 elements in 5 groups.

Taken with the early preset version of this lens.

Takumar Trek - that's what I am calling my trip starting next Monday, as I'll be driving towards Michigan for Photostock 2022. My plan is to mostly take US 23, spend some time in Ohio, then into MI to the end of 23 at Mackinaw City. Perhaps a day in the Upper Peninsula, if only to see the mighty Lake Superior once again. Then, down to Photostock in Cross Village, MI to meet up with a fantastic bunch of people. After that, it's back on the road again and eventually home. Nine days should cover it, and these Pentax Takumars will record a lot of it.

I've been taking a lot of photos with my Takumar 55mm's recently - for a new video. These lenses are a joy to use!

I am back! Shot with 5dmk2 and Super-Takumar 35mm f2. Edited In LR
