Thanks for the link Martin, some great pics in there. I must get out and give my Taks a run.

You can be lucky sometimes. I picked up an M42 telescope adapter for $10 and it arrived with a genuine pentax K-mount adapter attached.

Rotten luck
How did the lens fair : I guess you haven't been able to try it either. I would be worried about the SDM motor being damaged in some way.
My 50-135 fell from a top bunk and landed on a carpeted floor and it came up ok except for a broken cap.

I hope you were insured.

BTW what is it about bugs and this forum? There seems to be quite a theme developing!

Best wishes, Kris.
I don't know. I had hoped that all these red-blooded Aussies would be down at Bondi snapping lissome sheilas for our delectation.

But no. They sit at home drinking beer and photographing insects.

Bizarre.

PS: I do admit that it's a bit of a drive from NQ to Bondi, but all you have to do is hitch a ride on a road-train. No worries.
Sorry George but everytime I go to Bondi with my camera I get told to move along there old son

You know our road-trains I see, Ever ridden in one : Quite an experience I must say.

And its "NO Worries Mate"

Thanks Ken. I would have thought the Super Taks were the better of the 2. Shows you what I know.

I have never used any of the M42s other than on an old bellows I have.

BTW Ken I notice you have a 35mm f3.5, If you need an original case for it I have one and its your if you want it. Or anyone else for that matter.
