I found this lot in a box at my parent's house set for donation after an expert told my dad it was all "bad" and "worthless." Apparently the lenses have mold and moisture damage and are unusable. Funny, even just holding them up to my nikon body, I was able to produce sharp, clear images (after a bit of cleaning).
From left to right, top row: Sonor OneStop Polaroid with a Polotronic2 flash, Asahi Pentax Sportmatic (missing hotshoe) w/mercury battery NIB, National Minitop Flash, Kodak 35 camera.
bottom row: 135mm f/3.5, 28mm f/3.5, 3x teleconverter f/1.4, 85-205mm f/3.8, 28mm f/2.5, 50mm f/1.4, 135mm f2/.8
I just ordered a T2-Nikon mount, but discovered two have a K-mount, and of course it happens to be the 125mm f/2.8 that I'm most interested in (I forgot the other offhand, I think the 28mm f/3.5). The 125mm f/2.8 looks unused and in the original box with literature. Looks like my dad bought it for $140.00 in 1978.
I'm excited to play with the 50mm again, I used this trusty Pentax in Photo class in high school and that lens always produced good results.
