For me, it is an interest in the historical significance of its meaning.
ROLLEIFLEX PLANAR SERIAL NUMBERS SERIAL NUMBERS
Sometimes I think my interest in high serial numbers is looked at as me trying to find the "best" lens I can find. I looked at a few "real world" tests of a comparision between the ZE and the old Contax version and I preferred the bokeh of the Contax over the ZE's. I know the ZE would be the "native" lens but all the ZE's I priced were all higher than the ZF's I looked at at that particular time. I was actually going to buy a Planar 50mm f1.4 ZF instead of the ZE and buy an adapter to fit it on my 7D. The only thing you succeed is rumors on the net In fact the MM sample tested is even better than the ZE You can trust Zeiss MTF as they are from a real lens, not computer generated I just posted to see if members of this board with far more knowledge than myself have seen a Contax Zeiss lens with this high a serial # before and what historical significance it might have.Ĭheck MTF of ZE and MM at Zeiss, there are exactly the same
ROLLEIFLEX PLANAR SERIAL NUMBERS SERIAL NUMBER
Now this one with a serial number of 15XXXXXX, so close to the serial numbers of the new Zeiss lenses, has really peaked my interest. Then I recently purchased a Contax Zeiss Planar 50mm f1.4 with a 95XXXXX serial number and That changed everything. For a long time I thought it was in the 8XXXXXX serial numbers. I have always been interested in exactly when the Contax Zeiss line ended. It could indicate a possible optical redesign, a different place of manufacturing or a change in quality.
