ZEISS | Super Speed Prime (PL) (S35)
Lens: Zeiss Super Speed MKIII Prime - 18, 25, 35, 50, 85 (PL) (S35)
5 Lens Set - [ ¥40,000 yen / per day ] + tax
Zeiss “Super Speed” lenses are a collection of vintage glass from Zeiss that date back to the 70’s, 80’s, and 90’s with a maximum aperture of T1.3. There are multiple revisions that make changes to the housings, mounts, and iris mechanisms, however all generations provide a similar classic look. This particular set is from the most sought after of the Zeiss Super Speeds – the elusive MkIII.
Zeiss took the advice of users around the world and updated the focus scales on the Mk III by increasing the font size and rotating the engravings 90° to orient the focus marks upright when the lens is mounted to the camera. This final revision of these high speed lenses came about in the mid 90’s which enjoyed a relatively short production run.
Features:
High definition and contrast
No geometric distortion in the 18 mm
7-blade iris
Flare control above T2.8
Loss of sharpness and contrast with iris values below T2
