martin_brenner1 Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Hi all, has anybody had the chance to test the Schneider 2.8/80 Xenotar (manual focus)? I saw this lens some days ago at the Rollei homepage. Does anybody know if this one is identical with the AF 2.8/80 Xenotar? Thanks in advance Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edward_s_carmick Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 Yes, I own one and it is sharper than the Planar. It is identical to the AF version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martin_brenner1 Posted January 19, 2005 Author Share Posted January 19, 2005 Edward, thanks for your input! I'm considering to buy a a new 80mm lens since I still have the non-PQ 2.8/80 Zeiss on my 6003 professional. If the AF and MF lenses are identical I'll go for the AF version (good reason for a later upgrade to the 6008 AF). Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
