Carl Zeiss Planar 80mm F2.8 M42 mount, EOS lens for sale. This lens is a C-type Planar 80mm F2.8, the early standard lens for the HASSELBLAD 500 series. It is a legendary lens that has produced many masterpieces. I wanted to try using it with other cameras, so I removed the lens and incorporated it into a Comper shutter, modifying it for a view camera. The lens for sale has been adjusted for infinity focus for digital camera mounts and adapted to an EOS mount. The optics are in beautiful condition with very few scratches, mold, or dust, and little aging. The shutter is a used part from another camera, so it has some signs of use, but it functions normally. When shooting with a digital camera, use the B setting to keep the shutter open. I took some photos with this lens using the Panasonic GF2 that is also for sale. The focused areas are crisp and clear, while the background melts away with a soft gradation, enveloped in a subtle veil. You can get this close for close-up shots. Because it's a compact lens, you can attach it to various cameras by using M42 mount adapters and EOS mount adapters. You can enjoy various types of photography with the Carl Zeiss Planar 80mm F2.8, from landscapes to portraits, flowers, insects, and macro photography. Thank you for your consideration.
