The return of the Schneider-Kreuznach Xenon
Posted: Tue Sep 30, 2014 9:25 pm
Last seen in the 1960s on Kodak Retinas, the Rolleiflex SL 35 and a few other cameras, Schneider-Kreuznach has brought the Xenon back to 35mm photography - digital and film.
The two Xenons are the f/1.6 35mm and f/1.4 50mm. Both lenses are positioned to compete with the new Carl Zeiss Otus line. I haven't seen any mention of price, but I'm thinking $,$$$!
