Carl Zeiss Distagon T* 28mm f/2.0 "Hollywood"
« on: January 28, 2010, 06:14:29 am »

AE version is excellent condition, only showing normal and small signs of use on the body. The glass is mint. Please take a look at the pictures (sorry about the rear one, which is out of focus), since they are better than a description.

Unfortunately I don't have the original front cap, but one from Hama. Anyway, they are very cheap and easy to find on ebay.

This is the rare f/2.0 version, not the cheap (but also excellent) f/2.8 one.

If you are looking for one of this lenses, you certainly know this is one of the best wide angle lenses ever made. In some ways, the Contax version is better than its new brother and it certainly is more exotic, rare and collectible.

The performance is amazing. It's sharper corner to corner on full-frame cameras, like the 5D mark II. Please check the samples. They were taken using another copy of the "Hollywood" I used to have (which was scratched) on a 5D Mark II body.

The lens is also a pleasure to use wide-open, especially for those who love the typical Zeiss bokeh and 3D effect, like me. Colours are very natural and you'll get a beautiful micro-contrast.
