Manufacturer description
The "classic" telephoto lens for all photographs taken at a considerable distance from the subject - wildlife photography in the zoo or on safari, architectural details, sports photography and also group photographs. At 97 mm long, it is a very short, handy lens.
From the editor
The lens was produced under the following names:
- Rolleinar-MC 1:2.8 f=135mm - made by Mamiya
- VOIGTLÄNDER COLOR-DYNAREX 2.8/135 AR - made by Mamiya
The reason for the release of this lens in different names was that Rolleiflex SL35 series cameras were sold under the name Voigtlander in a number of markets.
Optically the lens is identical to the Auto Mamiya/Sekor SX 135mm F/2.8.
