Is this one worth a discussion? Not sure.

Anyway, I have been astonished and dismayed by the increasing number of descriptions that have clearly been composed by some AI. They all exhort one to buy the item to 'elevate one's photography to the next level' without a thought (!!) to the item's suitability or condition - which is never considered at all - and whatever 'the next level' might be is left hanging ...........

I covet the 28mm (but probably can't afford it) and the 135 is an optical masterpiece. The AF adapter is commonly available (at a price) and will transform most quality non AF lenses (even M42s if you know how). So I suggest disposing of them individually.

That is a wonderful sky. I agree with cropping the bottom (but perhaps not quite so drastically) and maybe making the format wider, which would do the crop while preserving the sky.

If you put it on when it was warm then the present cold weather will have tightened it up considerably. If you have one, put it in the airing cupboard to warm up for a few hours and try again.

I like 4 particularly. It was good observation to see the potential of those receding blocks. As to Spad's comment, we were freezing cold this afternoon, playing a bowls match in the rain (bowlers are all a bit mad) all wrapped up with almost numb hands and fingers!

That's a good price for a great lens. I've got one that I paid £150 for some time ago and it isn't for sale.

Ouch! I just looked up the A*300. Now I know why you still have it!
