This lens is considered an all time classic. Great for stills, digital or analogue and esp for video work!

M42 mount

This one is in fair condition, some internal dust. 


The Super-Takumar 55mm f1.8 is an all-time classic and one of the best vintage lenses commonly available today. Theyre inexpensive, solidly built, and give good image quality with plenty of character.

Theyre also very close to that  that you probably know and love. 


The image quality of the Super-Takumar 55mm f1.8 has never been in question.

Indeed, many users of manual focus lenses rate it among the best vintage lenses commonly available; especially when the price is taken into consideration too.

Mine has spent as much time on my camera as any other lens Ive owned, and Ive taken some of my very favourite photos with it.

Theyre plenty sharp enough when you nail the focus, and with good contrast and colours too.

Every image below is a real-world shot Ive taken with the 55mm Super-Takumar.
