Hi All,

I wanted to check with you guys as to which ones are 'generally considered better' - the Biometars or the Flektogons? For P6 mount.

I want to buy any good samples for reasonable prices, if anybody is selling

Many Thanks for your helpful advice,
Hari

Well they're different focal lengths...biometars are in 80mm and 120mm (~50mm and 80mm in 135 format). Flektogons are in 50mm (~31mm in 135 format). From what I know, these particular p6 zeiss lenses do not disappoint.

Flektogons are wide-angle, Biometars are standard/portrait. They cannot be compared directly.

/edit: Marc was faster Smile

They're all good Very Happy

But if I had to pick just one P6 mount lens, it will have to be neither: Sonnar 180/2.8. That is da bomb.
