Pentacon Auto 135mm f/2.8 Multi Coating
A vintage telephoto portrait lens with beautiful rendering and solid East German engineering.

The Pentacon Auto 135mm f/2.8 MC is a classic East German manual focus telephoto lens with a bright maximum aperture of f/2.8 and multi-coated (MC) optics for improved contrast and reduced flare. Built in the former GDR, it is known for its smooth bokeh, solid metal construction, and distinctive rendering — especially popular among portrait and nature photographers.

This lens typically comes with an M42 screw mount, making it compatible with a wide range of vintage SLRs and adaptable to modern digital mirrorless cameras.
