Yes, I have several of them, I have sold a couple of the 8 element 50's for pretty cheap because I have yet to find one without having scratches on the rear element. They protruded into the camera and were often hit by the camera's mirror when focused to infinity. So far my favorites beyond the 50mm are the 35mm 3.5 which is an excellent lens, and I really like the 200 f/5.6, very unique preset lens. The 135 f/3.5 is also capable of producing very sharp images. I have several as well as some Zuiko lenses and a couple of Vivitars, at the moment I have 3 70-210's like the one that you just sold, all Kiron's, but I think that the best Vivitar that I have is the 28mm f/2 close focus, an exceptional lens made by Komine, blows the Takumar 28mm completely away.

I have the eight element 50mm that you mentioned plus the 35mm 2.3! Both are beauties and I plan on selling them but, probably, on the bay. Keep an eye out.
