Zeiss Jena Contax 28 mm f8.0 Black Enamel Tessar with Both Caps

The Contax 28mm lens is not well known because it is relatively rare and when it is available it is usually dirty and it's optical performance is not great. But when overhauled as this lens has been it is a very successful super wide angle lens that is super sharp with great contrast. The angle of coverage of this lens is 105 degrees making it a super wide angle lens. When using it you have to take care your fingertips holding the camera are not included in the picture. Because it is an early lens it has a relatively small aperture and some light fall off. But with modern films the aperture is not a problem today and the fall off can be artistically very useful. Being a Tessar it is razor sharp and the negatives this lens produces can be very greatly enlarged..

This is an exceptionally rare Contax I model black paint 28mm Tessar and it comes with its original black front cap and a very well made chrome rear cap..

This lens is in exceptional exterior cosmetic condition showing only the most minimal storage marks. These marks show that this lens has not been used much. It comes with a genuine Carl Zeiss black front and a modern rear cap that are in wonderful condition. The lens surfaces are optically mint. This lens has also been completely overhauled here and comes with a one year guarantee. .

The serial number of this lens is a very early number 1632079..

This lens has had exceptionally gentle care for all of its extremely long life.

The optics are perfect mint quality.

This lens has been overhauled and completely cleaned and properly lubricated.
