AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The lens was cleaned in April 2026.
Please note that, as this is an older lens, some mold, fogging, and dirt may remain. We ask for your understanding of this before making a purchase.
Please consider it to have been cleaned to a usable standard.

[Functionality Check]
Aperture: Functionality verified
Helicoid: Functionality verified
It works fine.

[Condition]
There were no noticeable scratches or dents on the exterior.
I think it looks great.
Please refer to the photos for a closer look at the exterior.

[Optics]
The lens is clear when viewed directly.
When checked by holding it up to the light, it is clean with only a few specks of dust.

[Accessories]
Front cap(It’s from a different era, but it’s made by Minolta.)
Rear cap (compatible)

[Features]
This is a classic, compact, and easy-to-use vintage lens from Canon.
It is compatible with the L39 (Leica screw mount), so it can be used with Leica-style bodies and mirrorless cameras via an adapter.

At its maximum aperture of f/1.8, it produces soft, atmospheric images, while stopping down yields sharp, crisp results, allowing you to enjoy a wide range of shooting scenarios with just one lens.
It has minimal quirks, making it ideal for beginners to vintage lenses.

Lightweight and compact, it’s easy to carry and ideal for snapshots and portraits.

[From the Seller]

We plan to carry a wide range of models, from vintage cameras to digital cameras! All cameras listed here have been tested and are in working condition, so please consider them!
