AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
I am selling the very extensive photography collection of my late father. He was a passionate hobby photographer for 65 years and in recent years also experimented with alternative lenses on digital cameras. He would disassemble the lenses if necessary for cleaning or repair. I am not a photography expert myself, so I describe the lot as thoroughly as possible, including as many detailed photos as possible.
READ the information below and carefully examine the attached photos to avoid any misunderstandings.
This concerns:
SMC Pentax-M 50 mm f/1.4 lens, a compact lens perfect for portraits, street photography, and creative compositions. The fast f/1.4 aperture not only delivers excellent low-light performance but also creates a unique background blur (bokeh) that produces soft, smooth transitions between sharp and out-of-focus areas, making the subject stand out beautifully from the background. This effect makes portraits particularly atmospheric and artistic, something many photographers seek.
What makes this set particularly special is the Asahi MOR. & EVE filter. This blue-tinted filter is designed to subtly influence the atmosphere in morning and evening light. The filter neutralizes excess warm tones and enhances light contrast, making images at sunrise or sunset appear brighter and cooler. The effect is subtle but clearly noticeable: colors remain natural, details in light and dark areas are better preserved, and the visual ambiance of the golden hours is intensified. This filter is a rare vintage accessory, loved by collectors and analog photographers who want to add authentic effects without digital post-processing.
The filter is supplied in its original box, with the lens including original lens caps, making the set complete and both practical and attractive for collectors.
There is minimal dust visible in the lens, so the quality is still very good. See the detailed photos for your own assessment.
Diaphragm in focus, very smooth.
Combined shipping of lots is possible, but only if they are won in the same auction. This is to save on shipping costs!
