Carl Zeiss Jena Tessar 50mm f/2.8 semi-auto

(2 customer reviews)

The Carl Zeiss Jena Tessar 50mm f/2.8 semi-auto camera glass is a manual focus photographic lens that has a good bokeh effect when used at a wide aperture. It is an alternative option for those who want a lens with high resolution and good build quality, but don’t require autofocus. The lens has four elements and is coated to reduce flare and ghosting. It was manufactured in the past and may require a bit of searching to find one in good condition. The aperture range is f/2.8 to f/22, giving you the ability to control depth of field. Overall, this glass is a good option for those looking for a high-quality prime lens.

Optical design

Bright lens thanks to the high aperture value Has 8 aperture blades, with this amount of aperture blades you will be satisfied with the result.

Physical characteristics

Weights 180 grams so convinient to carry. 54 mm long, requires consideration if you want to carry in the camera bag. 49 mm lens filter diameter, you are one step from the next standard filter size, buy step-up ring and bigger filter but you can chose from plenty options.
