Mount of UV Topcor 1:4 f=135mm image by Vagn Sloth-Madsen (Image rights) |
The UV mount lenses from Tōkyō Kōgaku were produced from the 1960's specifically for the Topcon 100 Auto/Uni, and further used by the Unirex and the 1970s IC-1 Auto.
These unique lens designs do not have an aperture setting ring, as this is found on the camera body.
UV stands for Ultra Violet, as the lenses had a UV coating, and did not need a separate UV filter.
Later variants of standard lenses where marked Hi Topcor.
It appears that the standard lenses all had six elements.
