【Product Features】
It takes sharp images from the center even wide open, which is hard to believe for a lens manufactured over 60 years ago. The periphery is softer, but stopping down to around F8 makes it as sharp as a modern lens. The overall saturation and contrast are also sufficient, making it a very good lens.
Of course, it has the beautiful achromatic coating known as "Green Rokkor."
