This lens is more compact than my other m42 50mm f/1.4. IQ and bokeh is decent IMO.

Wide open


f/4


Wide open High key


Wide open indoor

Lovely shoots, do you know who made it ? As I know not Olympus lens, perhaps Tomioka.

Perhaps the mount had been swapped to M42 (leitax?)
It is relatively easy to swap the mount, all reversible.

Never heard of the FTL before, cool stuff, too bad they didn't continue it for a longer period, I like look of the lenses more than the OM's.

Th FTL was a nice camera to use. My brother in law had one for years.
I really liked it.
When he purchased the camera I was with him for making the choice. Very Happy
The lenses had a good reputation. He had the 50mm 1.8 and the 135mm 3.5.
