Ive been shooting the 28mm 2.8 and the 50mm 1.7 on my Pentax ME Super and MZ-6 and really enjoying them.
But...
I want something in between so thought of the 35mm Takumar M42 lens
Do you need an adaptor to use that lens on your pentax film cameras? And if you do where are they, how much and whats the alternative K mount lens in and around this length?
Cheers!

Although....
Its starting to feel like digital all over again! I want to take a break and do all in camera... I understand that film manipulation has been going on for ever before digital even came along but I like the idea of trying to do my utmost with my exposure and metering etc while shooting.
I will however think about the highlight blow outs in the future
Thanks for taking the time

(dont want to crop this one but see how you might want to)
( I do see the value in reducing the light in the top left of this image)

I will apply some of your ideas to my images and see how they make me feel.

I love the beard one myself..
I am trying to keep these straight out of camera... I dont want to start toying with photoshop (dont own it anyway) or lightroom.
Ive always shot a lot darker with my digital images so its nice to have more latitude to the right with film

for some reason the preview image shows the pool cut off. Strange
