Asahi Super-Multi-Coated Takumar 2,5/135mm (Model I with 5 elements) - M42 #E27 | Camera lens

■ Super-Multi-Coated TAKUMAR 135mm F2.5

A beautifully preserved vintage telephoto prime lens from the golden era of Japanese optical craftsmanship — the renowned Super-Multi-Coated TAKUMAR 135mm F2.5, produced by Asahi Optical Co., Japan.

This lens is part of the highly respected Takumar M42 series, celebrated worldwide for its precision engineering, robust all-metal construction, and distinctive optical rendering. More than half a century after its introduction, it remains a favorite among collectors and photographers alike.

The advanced Super-Multi-Coating enhances contrast and suppresses flare, delivering rich color reproduction and excellent sharpness even in challenging lighting conditions — a remarkable performance for a vintage lens of this era.

With its bright F2.5 aperture and classic 135mm focal length, the lens produces smooth background separation and elegant compression, making it ideal for portraits, nature, and artistic telephoto photography. The rendering is unmistakably Takumar — sharp yet organic, with a refined vintage character highly sought after by modern shooters.

Thanks to its M42 screw mount, the lens can be easily adapted to digital mirrorless systems, making it equally suitable for practical use and collection.

A beautifully preserved example of early Japanese optical engineering and a valuable addition to any vintage lens collection.
