Zeiss 4.5/135 Tessar?

[Thierry J. ROY]

I have just bought such a lense but know little about it other than it was appar ently discontinued a couple of years ago and, according to the shop selling it, it is excellent.

Could anyone confirm this, please?

I intend to use this lense indoors in available light at wide aperture if not fu lly open. How does it perform then?

Thank you for your help.

Hi Thierry, information about this lens can be found at these links:

note that the second link is often slow or it returns an error that there is no such site. Be patient and try reload - then it usually comes up. I hope you find these useful.
