Asahi Takumar 200mm f/4


This telephoto lens has an M42 mount and came to me along with a Pentax Spotmatic camera.
This is the Super Multi-coated version, which was made between 1971 and 1975.
It is in perfect condition and has a really admirable build quality. Although it is
about 50 years old, it feels much better than many modern plastic lenses.
And I like the high contrast results that this lens can produce.

When mounted on my Nikon Z6 I am able to handhold this lens. Hooray for IBIS!
