🛠 How to Use:

• Set your camera to Aperture Priority (A or Av mode)

• Choose your aperture on the lens ring (e.g. f/1.7 for max background blur)

• Use focus peaking and magnification assist for precise manual focus

• The camera will automatically set the correct shutter speed for perfect exposure

🧼 Condition:

This is a great copy of a highly respected vintage lens. Glass is immaculately clean (may contain the odd dust spec typical of vintage lenses, none affecting image quality). Stored in a dry, dehumidified environment. Fully tested and performing superbly.

📸 Why shoot with vintage lenses?

Modern lenses are sharp, but vintage glass offers character and warmth that digital optics often lack. They help you slow down, compose thoughtfully, and achieve a unique rendering style that makes your photos stand out.
