Manufacturer description

Designed with an emphasis on the soft bokeh at large apertures and sharp depiction when stopped down, which are characteristics of the KISTAR series. Pitch-polished lenses and machined aluminum lens barrel recreate the texture of the good old days. The latest high-refractive index glass and aspherical lenses make this a compact lens.
