So I got this lens today along with some others for practically nothing... It's hard to find a bad 135 and I think this lens showed that, it produced quite good in my opinion but as I've only had it for a day I can't really say.

I know practically nothing about it, so if anyone has some information about it please share!

Pictures are all taken at 2.8, except for the first one which was taken at f8 I think.., and they are not edited (so excuse me if they are a tad dark, I am really good at underexposing.....)

Panagor was the imported brand name for Kino Precision (aka Kiron) lenses imported to Europe. In the later years, after the demise of Kino other makers used the Panagor name as well

Nice first attempts Johanna - it's always problematic getting to "know" a new lens. Scott has given you a very precise history of the brand. Love the gooseberries

Very smooth bokeh here. I love the 135's for the 8-20 foot range. Very good still for portraits and flowers. I like your lens..and your photos aren't bad either. LOL

Thanks for the replies! It's interesting to know some history of it, I have no prior experience with Kiron lenses so if it one of those it's certainly interesting.. I really like the colors it produces! Will test it further today.

Nice photos. Can you also post a picture of the lens itself?

Certainly!





I hope it helps to identify it (if I had been clever this would be the first thing I should would have posted, hah!)

Panagor's were made by Kiron (Kino precision Industries) and are usually very good lenses.
