This is a successor model to the "Super-Multi-Coated Takumar 55mm F1.8" and is the last model in the M42 mount. The design of the aperture ring and focus ring has been changed.

**Condition**
・Appearance
There are small scratches and scuffs, and it shows signs of use.

・Lens
There is no mold or clouding. When a strong light is applied, slight wiping scratches that do not affect the shooting can be confirmed. The lens clarity is good, and I think it can be said to be a beautiful item for an old lens.
This lens uses thorium glass, which causes yellowing over time, but it has been removed to the extent that it is not noticeable during shooting by irradiating it with ultraviolet light (image 9).
There is some dust and dirt mixed in due to use.
*The evaluation is subjective. Please understand that this is a used item.

**Sample Images**
All images were taken at the maximum aperture (using EOS R).
