The original Pentax-M 50mm F1.7 optics are known for their compact construction, classic SMC rendering, strong contrast, natural colors, and attractive vintage character.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe lens features a neutral oval-bokeh modification designed to give spherical footage an anamorphic-inspired visual character. Unlike a true anamorphic optic, this lens does not require de-squeezing in post-production. For a classic widescreen presentation, simply crop or add 2.35:1 aspect-ratio black bars during editing. The oval out-of-focus highlights help create a distinctive cinematic image while retaining the convenience and simplicity of a spherical prime lens.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe aperture has been de-clicked, allowing smooth, stepless iris adjustment during video recording. A follow-focus gear is installed on the focusing ring, making the lens ready for use with standard cinema follow-focus systems and providing more controlled, repeatable manual focus pulls.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe lens has been fully cleaned, adjusted and re-lubricated. It has also been professionally adapted and adjusted for Canon EF mount use. The lens covers a full-frame sensor, making its classic 50mm field of view especially useful for narrative filmmaking, interviews, portraits, music videos, commercial work, and other cinematic applications.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe glass is in good vintage condition. There is very minor age-related wear on the optical surfaces, typical for a vintage lens of this period. These minor signs of use do not affect the final image under normal shooting conditions. The lens body also shows normal vintage signs of use consistent with its age. Please inspect the listing photographs for the exact cosmetic condition of this individual lens.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe SMC Pentax-M 50mm F1.7 belongs to Pentax’s compact M-series generation introduced in the late 1970s, during the company’s transition toward smaller K-mount SLR bodies and lenses. The original photographic lens was designed as a compact manual-focus standard prime for 35mm film cameras. This TerPhoto cine modification retains the vintage Pentax optical character while adding practical features for modern digital cinematography.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e⚙️ \u003cstrong\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLens Mount - Canon EF\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFocal Length - 50mm\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Aperture - F1.7\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Aperture - F22\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAperture Blades - 6\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Focusing Distance - 0.45m\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFilter Size - 49mm\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFocus Type - Manual\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSerial Number - Various\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e🎥 Why Choose This Lens?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe SMC Pentax-M 50mm F1.7 is an excellent option for filmmakers who want genuine vintage Japanese optics combined with modern cine-friendly handling. Its fast F1.7 aperture gives you useful low-light capability and shallow depth of field, while the oval-bokeh modification adds an anamorphic-inspired aesthetic without requiring an anamorphic shooting or de-squeeze workflow. The de-clicked aperture makes exposure changes smoother during a take, and the geared focusing ring integrates naturally with a follow-focus system. On a full-frame Canon EF camera or compatible cinema setup, 50mm provides a versatile natural perspective suitable for portraits, dialogue scenes, close-ups, interviews, narrative filmmaking, music videos, and stylized commercial productions.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e📦 This Offer Includes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e✔ Asahi SMC Pentax-M 50mm F1.7 Cine Mod Lens\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e✔ Canon EF Mount Adaptation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e✔ Neutral Oval \/ Anamorphic-Style Bokeh Modification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e✔ De-clicked Aperture Modification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e✔ Follow Focus Gear on Focusing Ring\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e✔ 80mm OD Cine Lens Hood\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e✔ Front Lens Cap\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e✔ Rear Lens Cap\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Asahi","offers":[{"title":"Canon EF (EOS)","offer_id":45387522801779,"sku":"178431875369","price":174.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0566\/6429\/3491\/files\/6a897d488d7afcc1f4727228.png?v=1787396007","url":"https:\/\/terphoto.store\/products\/asahi-smc-pentax-m-50mm-f1-7-cine-mod-prime-w-anamorphic-bokeh-canon-ef","provider":"TerPhoto Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
