The list is limited to 10 items, so I couldn't insert more options. E.g. 135/1.8 Spiratone/Sigmatel is also nice, esp. mounted on DSLR

I don't own it, but the SMC Pentax-A* 135mm f/1.8 is high on my list. Because of that I'll vote for the SMC Takumar 135mm f/2.5 which is in my collection. There's just something about fast glass I like

135mm, in general, are not the most beautiful lenses, in my opinion. They could actually be considered amongst the ugliest, because many of them look too long compared to their diameter. I think aesthetically speaking, the 90mm lenses are more beautiful.
If I had to choose one 135 for it's looks I would probably pick the Elmarit-R 135, second version, as it's larger diameter makes it more well proportioned.

I voted for the Carl Zeiss Sonnar .
But i also have the Rokkor-X lens , 2.8/135mm and it's a very good looking lens ! Built in hood, green & white plus the orange lens specs, very good ! and the lens itself wow. great quality pictures.
the Sonnar is much more light, some 3cm smaller , and even with the barrel extended. both great lenses to be honest.  |

Also my personal favourite in terms of sexiness.
The Jupiter-11 4/135 in either chrome or black is also kinda sweet, but the Steinheil has that certain "va va voom"

135mm, in general, are not the most beautiful lenses, in my opinion. They could actually be considered amongst the ugliest, because many of them look too long compared to their diameter. I think aesthetically speaking, the 90mm lenses are more beautiful.
If I had to choose one 135 for it's looks I would probably pick the Elmarit-R 135, second version, as it's larger diameter makes it more well proportioned. |
That's the reason why I have voted for the Tamron 2.5/135.
But I also agree to shrek, the J-11 is a very pretty lens as well!

I still feel that the first version 135/3.5 Takumar (pre-set) has a
beautiful amalgam of chrome and black "beauty rings".
As it comes down the runway, you'll notice the pelerine of the
chrome mount, highlighted by the classic Pentax styling for this lens.
The crowd can only gasp at the beauty, and the paparazzi goes
wild in the trenches as the camera and lens swirl at the end of the
runway and regress back to the main stage, confident in beauty
and modest in function.

I like this one, Topcon RE Auto Topcor 135mm:
I do not know how it performs since I do not have the adapter for it yet.
I hope it is not just a pretty face:-)
Cheers,
PS: I did not take this photo; it was from the prior owner of the lens:-) |
