While many people gravitate toward Takumars, these Chinon primes often match them for center sharpness and build quality. This specific multi-coated version is the one to have; it handles backlight much better than the earlier single-coated lenses. What I love about this lens is the focus throw—it's incredibly smooth and precise, which is a dream for videographers or anyone practicing critical manual focusing. It delivers a look that is sharp but still has that organic, 'filmic' transition between the subject and the background.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eCondition Report\u003c\/b\u003e Good condition. The lens barrel (S\/N: 540516) shows normal signs of light use and minor cosmetic surface wear consistent with its age. The optics are clear, free from fungus, haze, or significant scratches.
