the sonnar makes beautiful objects more beautiful,
such as this Marilyn Monroe doll..

Widest Sonnar? Zeiss 50/1.5?
 

Widest Sonnar? Zeiss 50/1.5?
there is an old RFF thread on the various sonnar lenses, started by our good friend, Hacker... List of Sonnar Lenses - Rangefinderforum.com

"The Sonnar is a photographic lens design, invented by Dr. Ludwig Bertele in 1924 and originally patented by Carl Zeiss, notable for its relatively light weight, simple design and fast aperture. The name "Sonnar" is derived from the German word "Sonne", meaning sun. It was given this name because its large aperture (f/2.0) made it considerably brighter than many other lenses available at the time."

Nice read!

Widest Sonnar? Zeiss 50/1.5?

Widest as in FOV ... 40mm is wider than 50mm, Thoth.


Newghost/Benny/Gommy needs to show us their collection of images with their sonnars.
