This Auto-Chinon 135mm f/2.8 is nice lens which gives very comparable picture look with Pentax-A 135mm
Here are some quick samples taken
from a lens Most were on wide open
For 135mm It's very small and very light, it is a bit soft a couple of stops down and it becomes sharp. it have M42 mount with saturated look Chinon lenses are know for. The lens remains highly recommended specifically for video if manual focus is your thing.

M42 mount Industar 50mm f3.5 it’s the smallest lens I have ever adapted. The lens Pros ok in the center contrasty and has a character but on full frame Terrible vignetting Very soft corners. Nasty ugly flaring. its front and smalls Difficult to adjust aperture Looks ridiculous on most adapters, it’s not ideal to buy this lens unless its for experimental purpose

Jupiter-9 2/85 1986 soviet lens with smooth focus ring good for filming, it has 15 aperture blades, and its 85mm making it fantastic portrait lens on f2 you get little defocused areas around but sharper in the center. It is a heavy lens with metal body and m42 mount photos having the faded Creamy look all the way this lens has 5 different versions easily differentiated thro the production year (tip: the first two digit of the serial number tells the year of production). The cheap lens is worthy of your attention.

Smc Pentax-m 1:2 50mm
very small Very good for filming good for portrait photo as well. with f2 you get dreamy like bokeh when you get up close to your subject. 6 bleds of shutters and mount of Pentax K with metal lens barrel. I recommend this lens in your gear bag only if you want to experiment and are looking for the characteristic this vintage lens has. worth if the price is less than 15$ .Swipe to the right to see example
