An extension to my previous images with the JCPenney Auto Lens 135mm f/2.8, a manual focus prime telephoto lens from the 80s. While many comments and reviews mentioned that the lens was made in Korea, mine comes with a 'Lens Made in Japan' stamp, and no mention of it having multi-coated (MC) optics.

The (MD Mount) lens is a solid glass and metal construction, has a 55mm filter ring, and comes with a built-in lens hood. Nice and handy in the hand, it is a bit of bulk, though, and tips my kitchen scale at 390 grams. The lens was mounted on my E-P5 with a common variety lens adapter that comes with a tripod support.
