This fast fish-eye lens has an image circle that completely covers the 24x36mm full frame format. It features a 180-degree angle of view diagonally. It came in two variants with these engraved names: 1: Fish-Eye-Takumar 1:4/17; 2: Super-Multi-Coated FISH-EYE-TAKUMAR 1:4/17. The first variant is referred to as Super-Takumar in Pentax brochures from the time even though the engraved name does not have the word “Super” in it. Many other resources also refer to this lens as Super-Takumar. One might think that there are three variants: Takumar, Super-, amd Super-Multi-Coated, but that is not the case per our research. There are only the above mentioned two variants with the first being referred to under two names. The first variant is worthy of the Super designation, though, since it has the auto-aperture feature. The Super-Multi-Coated version supports open aperture metering with the Spotmatic F, ES and ES II, and therefore might as well have been labeled SMC Takumar.
