The new Super-Multi-Coated Macro-Takumar 50mm f/4 lens is equipped with a fully automatic diaphragm to further increase its high performance. The magnification range is from 1/2 to infinity, but by applying the Auto Extension Tubes, you can shoot from life size to infinity. The automatic diaphragm enables you to shoot such difficult subjects as moving insects, while holding your camera and looking through the viewfinder.

Pentax Super-Multi-Coated Macro-Takumar 50mm f/4.0 SM

This lens is in Excellent condition as can be seen from the photographs. The aperture closes and opens correctly, the focus is smooth without looseness or binding, the appearance of the lens is clean with no dirt, no fading of the painted lettering or black metal coating. The optics are spotless with no fungus, no scratches, no dirt or cleaning marks.


Includes lens only.


Unfortunately the filter ring is dented as can be seen in photos.  But here is a photo that was taken immediately after this unfortunate accident using THIS lens for the cover of the March 2000 issue of Mobilia Magazine - you can see for yourself that this did not affect image quality - lens is SHARP.  The dent can be fixed by a technician and since the lens is recessed, no hood is needed.

Provides open-aperture metering with Pentax Spotmatic F, ES, ES II.  Fits Ricoh, Mamiya/Sekor, Fuji, Hanimex Praktica, Sears, Yashica and most M42 screw-mount cameras.

This lens is designed especially for close-up and macrophotography. The magnification range is from 1/2 to infinity, but by using the Auto Extension Tubes (not included), you can shoot from infinity to larger than life size. The automatic diaphragm enables you to shoot difficult moving subjects, while holding your camera and looking through the viewfinder.

For the price of a generic lens (that will produce inferior pictures, wear out prematurely, and disappoint you) why not buy the best 50mm macro lens ever made for your screw-mount Pentax or compatible camera?  With proper care this lens will last a lifetime.  You will not be disappointed!
