Title: schneider digitars any good
Post by: ixpressraf on November 17, 2009, 02:38:20 pm

I can buy some schneider digitars in schneider digital shutter complete with controller. They are the 35/47 and 100mm lenses. Are they worth something and any good????
Lenses are prisine, as new, mint almost not used.....

I have the 47, 80 and 120, and I used to have the 120 Macro but sold it. They are very good lenses with many good reports here on the 47 especially, which has a large image circle and therefore is good for stitching. If you are using it with the Precision back you have you don't need the Schneider controller - just a cable to connect the back to the lens and to a power socket. The Eyelike software then controls the shutters completely. I have one I can sell you if you want it.

Yes -I have one Apo-digitar in SES, (120 I think) with controller, but I have yet to use it. If you do not need the 47 I am looking for one!
