25 f2.8 HFT Distagon

25 f2.8 HFT Distagon

 

 

 

 

 

Rolleiflex 3003 Brochure:

 

‘A superlatively designed wide-angle lens of particularly compact construction. Very light at only 310g. Universally applicable for landscape, architectural and interior photography. Excellent depth of field, even at f2.8.

  
8 elements in 7 groups
f2.8 – 22
Angle of view: 80o
Close focus distance:  0.25m
Filter size: 49mm 

 

I find this lens a very nice and comfortable wide angle lens to use. At that point of time Zeiss only made a 25mm for the Rolleiflex. Zeiss designed 28mm was available for the Contax C/Y mount but not in Rollei QBM mount.  The 25mm has a very strong character. This character is very apparent when photographing situation with objects present from the near to far distance. The lens has very good sharpness and very good depth of field.
