Old Takumar 135mm f3.5 M42 lens

Henry,
I just use a two ring finder bracket, this seems to work for me.
I can post a photo of the set-up if that would help.

the 135 SMC is a cracking lens and so is the 50mm F2 SMC . Mine dates back 50 year to when I had a Pentax S1a slr.

Hi Ken

i do have a finder holder and I can hold the lens in the ring but this is only secured at three points between the aperture ring and focusing ring by small thumbscrews. I think I need at least another ring to have secure mounting but cannot figure out where else to put it. I would appreciate a picture. Thanks

The attached photo shows my set-up. One ring at the front and the other at the rear. The camera is an ATiK16.
