Zeiss Contax SuperSpeed T1.5-T2.9

Equipment description

In the 1970s' Zeiss and Japan's Yashica jointly launched a new line of SLR cameras.
The collaboration resulted in a new C/Y mount.
CONTAX Zeiss use the same glass, coating and overall design as the legendary Zeiss Super Speed lenses you know from movies such as “The Shining.”
Our set consists of selected lenses from the AEJ/G series, known for their so-called ninja-star bokeh. Thanks to the rehouse process, a 15-blade aperture was used, creating a circular bokeh.
As befits a classic silver screen set - the cases are in silver - limited edition.
Noteworthy is the 28mm/2 lens, which is one of the few to have its name “Hollywood Distagon.”
The kit includes a MacroPlanar 60mm lens with 1:1 reproduction (CF 0.24m).
Another gem is the new Zeiss Contax 40mm T1.5, the only lens in the world.
Created from scratch, it is an excellent gap-filler in the set.
The lenses share a common front: 95mm. Gears in the same position and improved Close focus.
