This lens is the Leaf Shutter (LS) 165mm lens for the Pentax 67. This lens comes with front and rear caps and the hard shell case pictured.
The LS mode allows using high-speed flash sync with a shutter speed ranging between 1/30 ~ 1/500 sec. When shooting in this mode, “U/S” lever on the lens should be set to the “U” position for “Usual” mode and the camera’s shutter speed dial to 1/8 sec or less while the leaf shutter dial – to the desired speed. Next, the leaf shutter needs to be cocked and an X-sync cable connected to the flash terminal of the lens for high-speed sync. It is crucial to cock the leaf shutter before each shot. Otherwise, only the camera shutter will be fired, probably at 1/8 sec or slower, depending on your camera’s settings, and the lens will function as an ordinary lens.
