Overview

The Edixar EEM 135 mm f/2.8 is a multicoated telephoto prime from the 1970-80s. In a comparison of twelve 135mm f/2.8 lenses on a 5DmkII, it was evaluated for sharpness, CA, bokeh, and contrast in real-world tests. Optical strengths include decent sharpness when stopped down, but weaknesses may include lateral and longitudinal CA and bokeh character depending on the scene. Build is typical for its era. It suits photographers interested in vintage manual-focus lenses and willing to accept some optical compromises for a budget-friendly option.
