Description:
Hi,
Have a good condition Sonnar Zeiss Opton 50mm F1.5 with the very well made Amedeo Adapter for Leica
The lens is the sought after West Germany version, with chrome barrel
Quote from Cameraquest:
Zeiss aficionados usually insist that Zeiss makes the best lenses...bar none. While the bodies may have lagged behind their competitors, Contax lenses were absolute world class. Zeiss and Leica lenses have a different look to the shots, the easiest way for you to understand it is to shoot with both yourself. All post war Contax lenses are coated. Earlier West German lenses are engraved "Zeiss Opton," later lenses "Carl Zeiss." East German lenses are labeled Jena and are "T" coated. The West German lenses have noticeably better workmanship and finish -- and sell for more. All West post war lenses from 21 to 135 have nicely finished chrome barrels.
Selling the bundle at $890 (adapter itself cost more than $350)
txt me if keen (96360646)
P/S the lens has a slight nick but does not affect picture takin, everything else is pristine, considering the age.
