Gebrauchtes Pentax Takumar 28mm F3.5 MF Filmobjektiv (Pentax Screw Mount)

The glass is surprisingly clean for a used lens this old, and the focus ring turns with that smooth, damped feel I’ve come to expect from Takumars. It’s sharp enough wide open for landscape work, though I wish the included warranty were a bit longer.

Bought this as my first screw-mount lens and the included front and rear caps plus the warranty made the deal feel safe. Focus ring turns smoothly and the 28mm focal length is perfect for street shots. Just wish the aperture ring had a bit more resistance, but the sharpness at f/3.5 wins me over.

The glass is spotless for a used lens, and the focus ring turns with that smooth, damped feel I remember from older glass. It came with both caps and the 100 day warranty gives me a bit of peace of mind for a vintage buy.
