Panagor 55mm F3 Auto Macro Lens for M42 - Extreme Closeup Capability with Ease!

Description

Panagor 55mm F3 macro lens for M42 mount. This lens will focus from infinity to so close to an object that it's almost touching the front of the lens! It's closeup capability is really just amazing. This lens was said to have been made by the legendary Japanese lens maker Komine.
The condition overall is very good and the lens looks like it's never been used. The glass is pristine. The iris action is very snappy and correct with no lag in the auto-iris mode. The lens also has is a very convenient AUTO/MANUAL switch. The focus travel is on the tight side, so with M42 mount this means making sure it's screwed on the camera body firmly, but the focus action is still quite acceptable for use IMO.
The lens extends greatly of course for closeup work, but also collapses down into a moderately compact size for use at normal distances and is actually a fairly light lens.
This is a finely made and uncommon Japanese lens. Sold as shown with a Pentax rear cap.
