Does anyone have any info, review etc?
Thanks.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20241213/98d6037b0646e0c917f44943217924a8.jpg

"The list" has links to Schneider documentation. If you don't know how to find the list, please ask.

How can I go to "the list"?

The first post in this https://www.largeformatphotography.info/forum/forumdisplay.php?8-Lenses-amp-Lens-Accessories discussion has a link to a pdf that is an annotated list of links to sites/pages of interest to, primarily, LF photographers. Download the pdf; its index, a set of bookmarks, doesn't seem to work in all browsers.

Hmmm...didn't know about Schneider's 6.8 version - must've been a special edition, also this judging from the front lensgroup cover. But oh...that link to the "specifications?" Could've at least mentioned something about image circle - but nope!

Then again, there was a mention that this lens does not feature image stabilization...so good to know! :rolleyes:

It was a pretty late introduction to their range actually - I'd missed noticing it for a while. Not sure how long it was made, but there are a few on eBay.

This lens always causes confusion because it has f/6.8 - like the old Angulons. The f/6.8 Super Angulon is the successor to the f/8 Super Angulon. I think it came up when the huge 90mm XL appeared on the market and they wanted to create a smaller alternative. Filter Size is 82mm, just like the old f/5.6 Super Angulon.

I bought a camera off a guy who was also selling one of these SA 90/6.8 lenses, which I elected not to buy as I already had a Fuji 90/8 at the time. Two things struck me about the lens. Firstly, it is huge, way bigger than your usual 90/8 lenses or the Grandagon 90/6.8. Secondly, that nasty silver colour on the front half which looks exactly like a 90s VCR and seems to scratch off just as easily as the finish on a 90s VCR, hence this guy’s lens which he had bought new already looked beaten up. I’m not surprised there’s not many of these around.

The 6.8 version was also sold in the Cambo Wide DS mount.
