Description from the seller

Excellent condition – renowned lens – vintage, characterful rendering.

I am selling a Konica Hexanon AR 28mm f/2.8, adapted to Leica M mount, a lens renowned for its sharpness, balanced contrast, and very organic rendering, particularly appreciated in street photography and reportage.

Features

Focal length: 28 mm

Maximum aperture: f/2.8

Mount: Leica M (via high-quality adapter)

Manual focus

All-metal construction, typical of Konica's heyday.

Smooth diaphragm, precise focus ring

-State

Optics: clean lenses, no scratches, no mold, no haze.

Mechanics: perfectly functional

Cosmetics: excellent overall condition

-Delivery & Interest

The Hexanon 28mm f/2.8 is often compared to much more expensive lenses.
He offers:

excellent sharpness from f/4

a subtle micro-contrast

a natural color rendering, very “film-like”

a well-controlled distortion for a vintage 28mm lens.

Ideal on Leica M, but also on digital bodies via a rangefinder or mirrorless with an adapter.
