Super-Takumar 300mm f/4 — Light enough for hand-held picture taking, this lens is the most ideal for spectacular telephotographic effects. Even with the diaphragm fully open, the aberrations are corrected to the greatest extent possible. Gives needle-sharp resolution to every corner of the picture. Equipped with fully automatic diaphragm; supplied with special lenshood.1


Distance engravings in yellow (metres) and blue (feet); rotating, removable tripod collar; built-in, extending lens hood.
