I do have a Super Takumar 55/1.8, which is the same as the first Pentax lens I ever owned, and came with an SV body. I found the original version very good, quite capable of making prints up to 20 inches wide. I'll have to try it on my K5ii, as this camera does seem to make the best of any lens you put on it.
