The Rollei Zeiss Planar 110mm f2 HTF PQ Lens was designed and manufactured by Zeiss for the Rollei 6000/6008/Hy6 medium format system, the most advanced, premium, and sought after medium format system every made. The design of this lens is based on the Hasselblad Zeiss 110mm f2 lens, however Zeiss perfects it and it surpasses the Hassy lens in every single way. No manufacture has ever been bold enough before or after this lens to put this much of p...assion and dedication into lens design ever again.
It was made only in a very small quantity because of the rare and exotic material and high manual precision required in manufacturing. Its optical quality and rendering power shine far beyond the medium format film, and it has become a living legend also in today’s digital world.
Some of my very best and most memorable photos were taken with this lens, both on film on the fantastic Rolleiflex Hy6 camera, and with adapters on super high pixel digital cameras from A7riii to Fuji GFX 50s. This is a real treasure.
The serial number of this lens is 8848135. This is from the first batch of production with the highest quality materials.
Condition:
Overall in Mint condition.
Functions perfectly. Focus rings turn smoothly and well damped, providing very precise focus, critically important for this lens as it produces really shallow depth of field in medium format.
Aperture ring is snappy, free from oil or any kind of abnormality.
The leaf shutter is perfect and precise when connected to a Rollei or Sinar or other compatible camera. You can also use adapters and use it as a non leaf-shutter lens.
Cosmetically the only minor wear I can see, with the help of magnification, is in Photo 6: there’s a very slight paint lose between the marking 5 and 7.
It comes with original front and rear caps, and a dedicated metal hood from Rollei specifically for this lens, which sells for 150 Euro separately.
