[Yellowing Removed] SMC Takumar 50mm F1.4 M42 Standard Lens

This is the "SMC Takumar 50mm f1.4," a synonym for old lenses.
This lens has undergone a process to remove as much as possible the characteristic yellowing of the lens (yellow discoloration due to aging) using UV light irradiation.

It has regained its original clear optical system, allowing you to enjoy beautiful, sharp images without disrupting the white balance even when attached to a digital camera.

*This is a screw-mount "M42 mount." Please note that it is not a K-mount.*

【Condition of the product】
Appearance: While there are minor scratches due to its age, there are no noticeable scratches or dents, and it is generally in very clean condition.
Optics: Yellowing has been removed, and it is very clear. There is no visible mold or fogging, and there is no significant dust that would affect shooting. The aperture blades are also clean without oil stains.
Operation: The focus ring (helicoid) rotates smoothly with moderate resistance. The opening and closing of the aperture blades and the A/M switch also function well.

【Included items】
* Front cap (genuine)
* Rear cap
