Manufacturer description
The new MC Rokkor 35mm f1.8 is the fastest "35" in the world. With its medium-wide 64 deg. angle of coverage, focusing from 12 inches to infinity and available light capabilities, this could be your next "normal" lens. A fully automatic diaphragm couples to the SR-T 101 metering system. Eight elements in 6 groups, including new high refractive index glasses, plus "Achromatic" double coating, add up to fantastically sharp, distortion free pictures and superb color rendition.
