Asahi Super-Takumar 50mm f/1.4 Vintage Prime Lens - M42 Screw Mount

This is a classic Japanese-made prime lens known for its exceptional build quality and beautiful bokeh. Based on the serial number (3718657), this appears to be the highly regarded 7-element version. It features the universal M42 screw mount, making it easily adaptable to modern mirrorless cameras (Sony E, Fuji X, Canon RF, etc.) with the appropriate adapter.

Condition:
The item is Tested and working. Cosmetically, it shows signs of age and use, including paint wear and brassing on the knurled metal focus and aperture rings. The glass is in good vintage condition; please note that Super-Takumar lenses of this specific era are radioactive (thoriated glass) and typically develop a warm yellow cast over time, which many photographers prize for black and white photography or correct via UV treatment.
