Think Pink - Zeiss Lenses For Nearly Everybody




Whenever you see a collector for the Pink Ribbon Appeal, put a gold coin in the tin. Breast Cancer research and it is a good, good cause.

Now - on to cameras. Gotta Leica, Zeiss-Ikon, Ricoh GXR, Fuji XE-1 or X-Pro1, or an Olympus mirrorless camera? Good for you. Notice how it looks sort of unfinished if you leave the lens off the front? We can help here.

Look carefully at three gorgeous silver lenses - all Zeiss ZM mounts. 21mm, 35mm, and 50mm. One, or all, of those are the lenses that you always wanted for your rangefinder or mirrorless camera.

Fast - we've got f:2 on the 35 and the 50 and f:2.8 on the 21.


Precise. All metal mounts, smooth focussing, positive stops. Focus lever integrated on each barrel.


Modular. Bayonet hens hood mount. 43ø and 46ø filter sizes - no weird sizing.


Fabulous glass - Biogon and Planar formulation - classic designs. T* coating.

Stylish. Silver. Also available in black.

Cost effective. It would be mean to point this out but it is true. Cheaper than the alternative - you decide if you would like to save.

Unusual. If you insist upon being a camera geek, these will stand you in good stead at the next geekmeet. No-one else will have them and everyone else will want them. You can gloat in all directions.

Bring your camera and take some test shots. Bring some money and take one home. Bring someone else's money and take them ALL home...
