I have this lens, and the auto-Takumar 55mm f2 and the auto-Takumar 55mm f2.2. I have recently seen claims that Tomioka made the auto-Takumar 55mm f2 lens. Can anyone verify this?

I don't know how to confirm that those lenses are made by Tomioka, but there are rumors.
A lot of people know or didn't know is that this lens is one of the famous model among-st radioactive lens that contain thorium, but it wasn't as dangerous as it sounded. Many of the lens have yellowed by now, but you can make it clear again by using UV light. Upside of it, is that many thought it is one of the finest lens made.

Thank you for your comment. I spoke in Japanese about the yellowing of the lens and how it can be removed by UV. However, this comment is helpful because it does not reach people in many countries. Thanks!
