Took some more pictures with this lovely lens today, trying to bring up some of the special character of the lens. I like the way the backgrounds look painted, and the 3D effect it gives.

It's a very nice old 50. I'm lucky enough to have a minty copy, and I use it quite often.

I'm also lucky to have found this lens as an attachment on a cheap camera 😊

A very smooth bokeh. Yashinons are always a pleasure, and this one seems to give a special touch.

bokeh is so beautiful, and charming。

I used to think about buying it, but it's not perfect for 6D,hit the mirror

I have a few Yashinon lenses, I like them all, and this one is one of the best.

This is only lens I bought it three times:two Yashica and one Tomioka. It is a tiny gem that I would recommand it to everyone. The samples here speaks itself.

Would you have a picture of the lens?
I am interested to see how it compares with the Yashinon DX 50mm f2
Thanks

There's no quite real comparison between these lenses ,only mention is that the tomioka version preset (I guess it's preset) is sharper than all others . I like the look of the satined finished polished version DX auto yashinon , and apparently this is different than the tomioka version.
