MORE INFO
This is probably the largest set of rehoused Zeiss Contax primes you will find anywhere: 13 focal lengths, from 15mm to 180mm. The set includes the now legendary Super Speed 35mm, 50mm, and 85mm, and the 28mm “Hollywood Lens.” It also has the less common 45mm T2.9 and 60mm Macro. On the wide end you have the 15mm, 18mm, and 21mm, giving you excellent ultra wide options.
Zeiss Contax lenses, are sharp, high contrast lenses, that perfrom well in almost any shooting situaitons, but are a bit more interesting and forgicvign than modern lenses. They are very consistent in regard to perfromance, color, and contrast.
The lenses are quite compact. TLS was able to squeeze almost every lens into a 95mm housing, except for the ultra wide 15mm which needed to be 134mm diameter. They all focus incredibly close. As with all TLS sets, they have matching focus and iris gears for quick lens swaps.
