The results look a hell of a lot more expensive! Well done!

I was pleased with it. It's a bit soft. Probably about 30 years old. Only minus is everything is manual including the focus.

I've got that on my Pentax ME Super and haven't quite got around to buying the adapter to use it on my 550D but from everything I've seen it's supposed to do very well.
