Re: What lenses are you using? Anything Legacy?

Samsung cover most needs up to 200 mm, so the only legacy lens that I use is an old Pentax M42 Super Takumar f.4 300 mm.  Closed down a couple of stops it's good and didn't cost much, but it is big and cumbersome.  I tried a 500 mm mirror lens, which is really too difficult without a proper viewfinder, and never sharper than just acceptable.
