Features. A true standard lens must above all give fine all-round performance and the Super-Takumar 55mm f1.8 has been perfected over the years with this object in mind.  Accordingly the lens design is supremely practical ~ distortion is eliminated, the same even performance is obtained at long or short range, image resolution is high and results with color photography are superb. This is truly an all purpose quality optic at home in all fields of general photography.

Main uses. A standard lens is the first step toward an interchangeable lens system. As an introduction to the Super-Takumar range, the 55mm F1.8 can be readily recommended.
