Manual focus standard lens series!
This time, we would like to introduce the manual focus 55mm standard lens for film SLR cameras from Asahi Optics , which is on sale at our Vintage Shop Japan Inc.
<What is a standard lens?>
There are various theories, but in general, a 50mm or 55mm focal length lens is the lens that comes with an SLR camera.
A standard lens is the lens that is closest to what the human eye can perceive.
For more information on standard lenses, please see our maintenance report column, which can be found here.
