Can't be possible. It was early 1970 when I traded my Spotmatic on a Nikon
F, as I was fed up with the screw mount/stop down business.
I'd believe 1978.
I'll bet the Super Takumar is better. I believe the Super means better
coatings. The 50/1.4 was frequently the lens that got a lot of attention
from the designers, but that idea somehow passed the Olympus lens designers
by. Frankly, I'm glad that they spent their money elsewhere.
