Carl Zeiss Jena Flektogon 20mm f/2.8 MC

This camera glass has a multicoating on its lens elements, which helps to reduce flare and ghosting when shooting in bright light. It was manufactured in the past, so it may be difficult to find a new one. The aperture can be adjusted from f/2.8 to f/22, allowing for a range of depth of field options. The build quality of this photographic lens is solid, with a metal construction that feels durable. It can produce good resolution images with sharp details, and the bokeh (out of focus areas) can be pleasing. This lens is available in different mounts, so if you have a camera with a different mount, there may be alternatives available.
