Up close and personal. Very creamy bokeh. Getting to see images from this lens is rare. I thank you and hope you'll share more.
I've occasionally wondered if I had enough money for this lens, whether I'd buy it or a 645D.

Holly crud! That's one heavy duty piece of glass. The results speak for themselves. Outstanding images. Wow!

Wonderful example from a wonderful lens. Very nice. Along with T-man, I would really like to see more.

Thank you all for your comments.  The A*600mm was bought in July 2011, It is in excellent condition and I love its sharpness and creamy bokeh.  #3 (Blue Jay)  was taken with the 1.4XL TC (840mm!!!).   I am just back from a month of vacation in Florida so I will post some pics of birds from the south soon.  Thanks.

600 mm ,   that must be even heftier than the 300 f4 that dominigue has ( i think dominigue has every single pentax lens,   and probably  every nikon and maybe canon ,  and leica,  and voightlander  ( is that how one spells voigtlander?   )  oh yeah,   i think so ,   don't you guys too?

Hmmm. It's Voigtlander and yes, he has all of them. However, I've never heard him mention any Takumar's.

Excellent shots with lots of WOW factor.  A lens like that may be on the pricey side, but the results certainly show why.  Just brilliant. Well done.
