Honeywell Spotmatic SP IIa - battery/lenses

Recommended Posts

Hi All,

 

Just swapped one of my srt's for one of those with 50/1.4.

I heard that the circuitry is insensitive to the voltage jump to 1.5V

in case I use a modern battery. How about impedance dances? What

exactly is the type recommended please?

 

What lenses do stand out in the screwmount line please?

 

TIA, Y

I have used a 1.5V battery in my Spotmatic II without any problems. I don't remember which one it was as I don't use the meter any more (I use a hand-held meter and sunny f/16 rule) but a search on Google should come up with something. Regarding lenses, there really aren't any really bad Takumars. My top picks are the 35/2, 50/1.4, and the 85/1.8.
