135mm RF lenses - used a lot?

I'll do that, Roland, when I eventually get it back.
As for minimum distance, I think it was 1 meter, but since I don't have the lens in front of me I can't check. My 135/2.8 came with a nice parallax adjustable 1:1 brightline VF.

The Komura 105/2 has often intrigued me quite a bit, but it is pricey (and rare) for a relatively unknown optic.

Komura 135/2.8 foucs down to 5' or around 1.5m.

I got a Komura 135mm F/3.5 LTM a few months ago for $60. Very nice lens, solid easy to use well made. It really makes nice pictures. I'm more of 35mm, 50mm user so I'm not sure if I am going to keep it even though it is high quality. I might sell it. Offers?


I carry is in my bag and have found uses for it but I also have a 90mm.

Hi, Leo, if you have scans of some photos taken with the 135/3.5, I wonder if you wouldn't mind sharing them, either in this thread or in a new dedicated to Komura teles ? I'm using double-x, too, and the 135 I have would see use most often for portraits at conferences where the extra reach is a big plus, so I'm very eager to see what it can do. Thanks, Jon.

Jon,

Just read your note, I am away from home for a few more days shooting and when I get home I will try and put up a couple of scans
