G'mornin' Philippe!
I played with the 50/1.4 a few weeks ago, and found it flared badly. I've
just received a very nice, metal lens-hood for it ($6 inc. postage, on
*bay) and now need to try it again.
The macro-Takumar seems very nice. I've been making a few more prosaic
shots of SD cards and the like, and it seems to work very well! No AF, of
course, but for slow, methodical macro work, I don't think it's necessary.
Overall, I think I'm going to be very happy with the Macro-Takumar! And,
the price was right!
Thanks for your kind comment on the Orchid Cactus shot.
Cheers!
