Hi!
Does anyone know how do they perform? I wasn't able to find almost anything about the lens...
Is the 180/2.8 better than de Carl Zeiss Jena "very huge thing" version?
Thx!

Your welcome! Generally all Contax Carl Zeiss lenses are better than older Jena lenses this is naturally , but some old Jena glasses still unbeatable and most of them has lot lower price than their cousin. I never seen any average Jena lenses all are fine quality glass you will won't disappointed any of them.

To me the contax s135 n s180 are 2 most underrated lenses, and they are so cheap compared with 3 years before. |
