    Overview

    The Komura 105mm f/2 is an M42 preset lens with a 12-blade aperture. It is soft wide open but becomes sharp when stopped down, especially at f/4 and above. It offers good contrast and bright colors, though it suffers from glare without a hood. Build is typical of quirky independent lenses (DPReview forum). Suits users who appreciate vintage character and can manage its wide-open softness.
