Actually, I find that a lot of lenses actually look better stopped down.
Better bokeh better drawing over the subject with enough DOF.

Very nice set of 3 images.
You really do these lenses proud.
 

Ranchy....love the pop in your photos, especially #1 and #3.
 

JK......great results with some exotic glass :)

Thanks.

Pentax literally stole the M42 mount from its creators (the Zeiss Praktika) and made it their own with the mount becoming known as the Pentax Screw mount.
So this line of history just provides Pentax with lots of legacy lenses in M42 mount to use.

Wow ... last posting for this thread was 22 June 2017. It has been sometime since i posed. Participated in a photo session organised by some friends yesterday afternoon. Hence have some pictures to share and maintain interests in this Pentax Section. Hope to see more Pentaxians also do their little part by posting their pictures. :)
