Carl Zeiss Jena Tessar 8/2,8cm voor Contax RF + Universalzoeker | Camera lens

This pre-war Tessar 2.8cm was considered one of the ultra-wide-angle lenses of its time. This lens is offered here as a set and consists of:

+ a Carl Zeiss Jena Tessar 2.8cm f/8 lens with serial number 2134116 from the year 1937, complete with Carl Zeiss Jena front cap
+ a universal finder 436/70 with serial number 12917 for focal lengths of 2.8, 3.5, 5, 8.5, and 13.5 cm.

Cameras Not Included

The lens glass is free of scratches, mold, or separation. Internal haze is minimal. The focus adjustment and diaphragm (without oil on the blades) operate smoothly.

The viewfinder is clear with unbroken glass; internally, there are minimal dust particles.

The appearance of the set is very neat, with very little signs of use.

The lens is usable on pre-war rangefinder cameras Contax I, II, and III, as well as on post-war Contax IIa and IIIa. Notably, this lens has no coupling to the rangefinder. Zeiss believed that, due to the large depth of field, such coupling was apparently unnecessary....
