Tessar F2.8/50mm 6216979 Carl Zeiss Jena ★ Rare Zebra ★ Dead Stock ★ Hard to Find ★ Old Lens ★ SLR Camera The Tessar is a single-focus photographic lens and its structural name, produced by Carl Zeiss of the German Democratic Republic (East Germany), and is one of the representative masterpieces of the Carl Zeiss brand. Compared to other configurations such as the triplet, which was widely used at the time, the Tessar is characterized by its low distortion, beautiful bokeh, and, above all, astonishingly high image quality, such as the sharpness of the focus surface. Carl Zeiss advertised the Tessar with the catchphrase "The Eagle Eye of Your Camera" (Das Adlerauge Ihrer Kamera), and it actually came to be called that by photographers around the world. This is a treasured lens from the former East Germany, before the fall of the Berlin Wall. It can be connected to mirrorless cameras and SLR cameras using a mount, and is a lens that can still be used actively even after more than 50 years. My grandfather kept it in a lens storage room for many years, protecting it from moisture, dust, and mold, but I am not familiar with it, so it appears to have no problems with the lens or operation by visual inspection, but if you are concerned, please be sure to ask questions before bidding. The serial number is also engraved, and it is one of the few lenses made in East Germany, undoubtedly Carl Zeiss JENA. It is a popular and rare zebra lens among the Tessar lenses! There are also lens hoods and other items from that time. Please purchase these valuable items together. Depending on the bidding situation, we can also discuss discounts for bulk purchases. I would be happy to pass it on to someone who will cherish it. * Please feel free to ask questions. After winning the bid, we ask for no claims and no returns.
