Carl Zeiss Jena 1.4/50 Biotar

Hello everyone,

I think this is the best place to post information about this lens(a rare lens?). This is a movie camera lens, but with an adaptor, it could be used on a LTM rangefinder camera. It is very good for those Digital rangefinder cameras for its smaller image size. This lens is a little bigger than a Helios 44, and focus down to 0.55m. I tried it on a DLSR for macro photo, and it is a very sharp lens.🙂

I also have a few fast 35mm cine optics, 35/1.2, 50/1.3, 20/2, 28/2, that can also be used on a Digital rangefinder camera. Just throw in soe new ideas.

Cheers,

Zhang

Hi,

Thanks for the advice, but I am not sure where is the CZ section? :bang:
Here is an image of this lens, and a macro image shot with this lens on a DSLR.😀 This is a sharp lens.
