Carl Zeiss C series

The first generation of Carl Zeiss lenses with a built-in leaf shutter, introduced in 1957.

  • Fully synchronized for M- and X-settings so that you can work with flash at all shutter speeds;
  • Aperture and shutter speed are cross-coupled by default but can be set independently for complete creative control;
  • Originally matt-chromed, all C lenses were supplied in black trim from 1969 to 1981;
  • T* multi-coated from 1973 (30-80mm focal length range), 1974 (all focal lengths).
