I love Pentax lenses. Don't think I have seen the M42 version of this one though. Thanks for posting!

I have one, but no u4/3 adapter ... YET....
It is has a nice Bokeh and is cheap....
I have the Pre SMC version... duel coating, not multi coating.

Must get a PK to u4/3 adapter (I keep a M42>PK adapter on the lens)

My favorite film camera as taken by my favorite digital camera.

Is that a IIIa? Love the Gordy Straps.

No, it's a IIf! A III series would have the slow speed dial on the front where the black disk is.

The Gordy Strap is awesome! I've got three of them.

Why is the Gordy strap awesome? It looks gut ugly, though?

Hand Made, Very Strong, for those who like Wrist straps, you can't get any more classic looking, (IMO), Under $25.00
Not real pretty, granted, but, tough as hell, and many will secure to tripod thread, (this one doesn't), in lieu the strap lugs, that on some cameras are not in the correct spot, and would cause the camera to tilt with a neck strap type arrangement. Typically, you see those on old RF that have a tripod socket at the edge of the camera base, All film Leica's do from day one because the base comes off to load film.

Used a set of extension tubes to get this shot of a Ball Point.

That ball point looks a bit dusty
