Schneider Tele-Xena 135mm f/4.0

2014-07-03 Posted by Hin Man
This is an unusually small 135mm.   It is is DKL mount and it can be converted from DKL to K-mount or m42 mounts.   Be warned that I have tried three similar adapters and only have one working.  The worse thing is they all look alike generic brands.

The lens has a very long minimal focusing distance of 4 meters.  If it has something more reasonable as in 2 meters, I would have kept this lens.  It is well built with good sharpness and color.  Filter size is 58mm and it is easy to find a matching tele lens hood.
