The images shown depict the exact lens you will receive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SMC Takumar 50mm f\/1.4 is a classic fast standard prime from Asahi Pentax's highly regarded Takumar series. Its 50mm focal length provides a natural perspective suitable for portraits, street photography, travel, everyday subjects, and general-purpose film photography. The bright f\/1.4 maximum aperture provides excellent flexibility in lower-light situations while allowing for shallow depth of field and strong subject separation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lens uses the widely adopted M42 screw mount, making it compatible with a range of vintage M42-mount 35mm SLR cameras. The Manual\/Auto aperture switch also allows greater flexibility when using the lens with different M42 bodies or adapting it to other camera systems. When used with an adapter, metering and aperture operation will depend on the specific camera and adapter combination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll lenses sold by CPB Darkroom are inspected for optical condition, focusing operation, aperture responsiveness, mount integrity, and overall mechanical functionality. Any cosmetic, optical, or functional notes are clearly described and reflected in the condition grade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cb id=\"docs-internal-guid-5f4092c5-7fff-e233-3c8c-7cb674d0f7fb\"\u003eRefund Policy- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shop.chennaiphotobiennale.com\/policies\/refund-policy\"\u003ehttps:\/\/shop.chennaiphotobiennale.com\/policies\/refund-policy\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PENTAX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50541021823059,"sku":"VG-TH-SEP26-01","price":13000.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0103\/0317\/6755\/files\/img_38Large_cdf1ed27-1fc9-4c31-af5b-a87144fb7ce0.jpg?v=1790421067","url":"https:\/\/shop.chennaiphotobiennale.com\/products\/smc-takumar-50mm-f-1-4-vg-th-sep26-01","provider":"CPB Foundation","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
