XPan with a Zeiss PC Distagon

[didjiman]

The Zeiss PC Distagon 35/2.8 covers the full frame of the XPan wdith! Pretty darn amazing. Scale focusing, but works great!

Not keeping it since it's more a chore to use than the 30mm XPan, but much cheaper and much larger aperture.

thanks for sharing. The PC Distagon fills a 63mm diameter. Looking at your pic I suggest it is a little bit more 🙂

Das PC-Distagon® T* Objektiv 2,8/35 mm ist ein Weitwinkel-Objektiv, dessen Bildkreisdurchmesser mit 63 mm merklich größer ist als für das Format
24 x 36 mm erforderlich.

What about the finder - is it thrue that the full finder (outside the 45mm frames )
is equal to 35mm ?

Not sure, but I think it's close enough for it to work.

i came accross this lens fit on xpan, just wondering where to get the adapter from Y/C mount to xpan, heard some say Y/C to OM (4/3) mount is usable ?

thats real cool if can fit with YC, more choice of lens can use 😀

Yes, you can fit C/Y lens to XPan, 4/3 etc. I put the lens+ adapter for sale for ~3 weeks and they finally sold. There is really minor smudge on the coating, and honestly, any shooters would not notice and the buyer has just gotten a very good bargain.

Sorry as a non native english speaker, did I understand right you just said that a C/Y -> FT Adapter will fit also to a xpan ?? 😕
Even if the mount would fit, what about the flange distance
