Did you ever find the adaptor for the Takumar 135 and if so where and what brand did you find? Thanks for your timely response sir.

Asahi Pentax Takumar 135mm f3.5 42mm Screw MT Lens
I just bought this one on eBay. Will it fit my Canon 5d with the adapter?
Thanks for your help,
Anthony

I own a super-takumar 1:3.5/135mm lens and would like to know the difference the auto or manual switch on it can make when attached to an Argus/Cosina STL 1000 camera?

Wow, great information :) It does have a “4″.

Based on its serial number, 846894, shown in one photo above, this lens has the original Super Takumar 135mm/3.5 lens formula (5 elements in 4 groups). Somewhere around 1967, the design was changed to 4 elements in 4 groups. Possibly, this gave the later design a different bokeh characteristic. I think the original design also had “4″ marked on the aperture ring between “5.6″ and “3.5″, whereas the the later one lacked the “4″.

Thanks, I hope I’ll get in the position where I can buy again :) The Jupiter sure looks interesting.
