How good is the Super Takumar 55 f2 m42 mount? I've looked on several pages but can't find any evaluations (just specs). My daughter is taking a photo class and needs a manual camera. She really doesn't like the SP500
Old fashion... Just not cool looking for her generation...
so I'm thinking of getting the m42 to K adaptor and sticking the superTak on the MZ-7. (I want to keep my FA50 normal for my usage, and besides the super tak has a much nicer feel on manual focus.) I can get the adaptor locally (generic) for $17 or for about $20 with shipping from B&H (Pentax).
Go for the Pentax, no way out. At 5$ I would maybe consider the generic one...

I could also just buy a non-F 50 form KEH for $45-60. I know the teacher wants manual focus and everyone will feel better if the camera just can't AF.
