I've got a fair collection of Pentax Takumar lenses, all prime, that I'm considering using on my DRebel, 20D, and Elan7 with an M42 adapter (Wow, no auto features with these lenses!! :lol: ). I'm wondering if anyone has any comments on how the old Takumars compare with the glass on lenses made today.

And that's not even takumar, that's the USSR helios.
