Today we are presenting the legendary Zeiss Planar 80mm f2.0 lens from Contax 645 system, professionally converted by us to Mamiya 645 or Pentax 645 mount. After the modification it works as a fully manual lens on all models of Pentax 645, Mamiya 645 and Phase One cameras, film or digital.
- for: Pentax 645 - all models, film and digital
- focusing: Manual from 35cm to INFINITY (great for close portraits and close-ups)
- aperture: Wide open at f2.0
- mechanics: BRAND NEW, focusing is smooth, aperture works properly
- optics: EXCELLENT, lenses are clean and clear, no fungus or haze
- cosmetics: BRAND NEW
- OPTION of FULLY REVERSIBLE MODIFICATION : $200
(modification is performed so nothing is changed in original lens body besides removing optics, and if needed modification can be reversed by moving optics back and restoring the lens to original factory state. Original lens body is sent back together with new modyfied lens and any fairly skilled lens technician can perform the reversal)
In this modification we create whole NEW lens (focusing mechanism, all mechanics and mount) and we transfer the optics from the original lens, plus some other small parts. Modification is performed without changing anything in optics, so the lens performs exactly as before the modification. Front and rear caps are included.
As for the lens, it's SIMPLY THE BEST MEDIUM FORMAT lens there is, offering amazing rendering, bokeh and 3D effect. Please see some typical shots made with Planar 50/1.4 in the gallery on the left and by following the link below.
Conversion of the lens will take 3 days and the lens will be shipped out on the 4th day from the time the order is placed.
