The Asahi Pentax Super-Multi-Coated Takumar 24mm f/3.5 is a manual-focus wide-angle prime in the M42 screw mount, produced during Pentax's SMC Takumar era of the early 1970s. It was designed for 35mm SLR photographers wanting a moderately fast, compact wide-angle lens for landscape, architecture and general reportage work.

At UK auction the lens trades modestly: the only recent hammer result in our records is £70 in March 2026, which sets the available reference point for what a copy in saleable condition sells for at saleroom level today. Because this is a single data point of wholesale auction value rather than retail dealer pricing, the broader market price and value for clean, fungus-free examples with original caps and case can sit above this figure when sold privately or through specialists.
