Takumar 500mm f/4·5 — Comparatively light and small for its performance, this powerful long-focus lens brings the inaccessible within reach. Its bright f/4·5 image simplifies composition and focussing, and it produces edge-to-edge coverage of high resolution. Equipped with manual diaphragm; supplied with special lenshood.1
Distance engravings in yellow (metres) and blue (feet); non-removable rotating tripod collar; built-in extending lens hood.
To attach the lens to a camera, the rear part is removed by rotating a collar. This part is then screwed onto the camera and the rest of the lens attached with a three-claw bayonet mount.
* The filters are attached to the rear (removable) tube.
