Asahi Super-Takumar 55mm F2 Cine Mod Prime Lens w/ Anamorphic Bokeh | Canon EF!

🎬 Asahi Super-Takumar 55mm F2 Cine Mod Prime Lens w/ Anamorphic-Style Oval Bokeh For Canon EF

This offer is for a professionally cine-modded Asahi Super-Takumar 55mm F2 prime lens, adapted and adjusted for Canon EF mount. This vintage Japanese lens has been modified by TerPhoto for cinematography and professional video capturing work, giving filmmakers a practical full-frame manual prime with classic Takumar rendering, smooth focus control, de-clicked aperture, and a cinematic oval bokeh character.

The optical modification gives the lens a neutral oval bokeh effect, allowing this spherical-modified lens to emulate an anamorphic-style look without using an anamorphic adapter and without de-squeezing footage. For a finished widescreen cinematic presentation, simply add 1:2.35 aspect ratio black bars in post-production. This makes the lens a great creative option for music videos, narrative films, interviews, fashion videos, wedding films, stylized commercial work, and vintage-look digital cinema.

The aperture has been professionally de-clicked for smooth exposure transitions during video recording. The lens includes 2x follow focus gears, one for precise focusing and one for aperture control, making it easier to use with follow focus systems, cine rigs, matte boxes, cages, shoulder rigs, and professional camera setups.

The lens covers full-frame sensors and can be used on Canon EF mount cameras and EF-compatible cinema camera systems. It is adapted and adjusted for Canon EF mount, fully cleaned, adjusted, aligned, and re-lubricated for smooth manual operation.

The glass overall is in good condition. The lens has been cleaned and aligned, and it is free of fungus and serious scratches. There is very minor wear on the glass, typical for a vintage lens of this age, and it will not affect the final image. The body shows normal vintage cosmetic wear from use, including small marks and signs of handling, but this does not affect operation. Focus and aperture movement are smooth and usable for video work.

The Asahi Super-Takumar 55mm F2 was produced in Japan during the classic era, mainly in the late 1960s and early 1970s. It is closely related to the well-known Super-Takumar 55mm F1.8 optical family, with the F2 version often considered a slightly aperture-limited variant. Takumar lenses are valued by photographers and filmmakers for their solid all-metal construction, smooth manual focus feel, warm vintage color, gentle contrast, pleasing highlight roll-off, and classic bokeh character.
