FOR SLR DSLR MICRO 4/3 CAMERAS
PENTAX K PK MOUNT
Vintage film lenses offer your portraits, candid photography, social documentary, fine art, landscape and street photography a cinematic look, and are very affordable compared to their digital counterparts. Their unique image rendering characteristics and slight imperfections are what give them the warmth and charm that some say is missing from digital photography.
DESCRIPTION
1.- Lens is in good cosmetic and working condition, clean. Front glass is clean, no scratches, no mold or fungus inside, very light haze on the rear element and some dust/specks inside but none will show up in your photos (see samples bellow). The 8 aperture blades are a bit oily but snappy nonetheless. Focus and aperture rings turn smoothly. It takes 52mm filters and comes with a built-in lens hood. No cracks or broken parts, minor scratches/scuffs here and there. Made in Japan, S/N 5538317.
2.- Rear and front caps included.
Great telephoto lens, sharp, focus is silky smooth, but works better in overcast/rainy days, tends to be a bit soft in bright sunlight unless you use a 52mm filter. Most current AF auto-focus lenses run into hundreds of dollars, imagine getting a classic F/2.5 135mm prime lens at a fraction of that. The pictures bellow were taken with this lens and DSLR camera in just a few minutes walk!
Lens has a Pentax K mount and with the right adapter (NOT INCLUDED), it can fit most DSLR and Micro 4/3 cameras. There is no auto-focus but adjusting the focus and aperture rings in the front is not that difficult and gets easier and easier with practice.
The following pictures were taken with this lens attached to a Canon DSLR camera using a "Pentax K to Canon EF adapter" (not included). No tripod or flash were used, all pictures were taken handheld, no auto-focus of course.
