I remember myself as a teenager looking in the brochures with great envy. In the last years I have collected all the novoflexars (400mm 600mm 560mm Telyt) just for fun (they can be found for very little money), The T was missing in my collection. The standard 400 and 600 novoflexars are nice not great, the telyt and T are much better. A small modification on the pigriff and the Telyt and T are 100% usable on digital including SR.
