Carl Zeiss Pro-Tessar 35mm f/4

The Carl Zeiss Pro-Tessar 35mm f/4 is a classic wide-angle lens from the Pro-Tessar series, designed for the Zeiss Ikon Contaflex system. With its 35 mm focal length, it provides a wider field of view than the standard lens and is well suited for landscapes, architecture, street photography, and general photography. As expected from Carl Zeiss lenses of this period, the Pro-Tessar offers distinctive image rendering and excellent build quality. This example has visible coating issues on the optical elements. The coating deterioration is clearly present and has therefore been taken into account when assessing the lens. For this reason, the lens is priced lower than an example in better optical condition. Serial number: 2295500.
