Samples: Carl Zeiss Tele-Tessar 200mm F/4
mount: C/Y Contax/Yashica format: FF year: 1985 - ca. 2005 max aperture: F/4 min aperture: F/32 elements/group: 6/5 aperture blades: 8 min focus distance (mm): 1500 filter diameter (mm): 55 length (mm): 122 weight (g): 550 additional information: Unfortunately no product fact sheet for this lens exists. In comparison to the 200mm F/3.5 Tele-Tessar of the Contax system which was introduced already in 1975 this lens is more compact and less weigthy. The lens has an in-built hood. This thread is open for C&C and for posting additional pictures. Please ONLY post pictures taken with the lens in the title- or start a new thread. Please state camera, version of the lens and adapter in your post! Edited by waldo_posth - 08 May 2021 at 22:59 |

These are some exemplary images which are in part shot at a housing estate, built in 1996, called "Nutheschlange" - along the Nuthe river in Potsdam (not the pond depicted in the images). There has been (and is) a lot of controversy about its architecture (architects: Doris and Hinrich Baller - they also designed many details like light fixtures). There are currently plans to tear down parts of it since the costs for its maintenance have skyrocketed.
#1 Pond and Fountain (Nutheschlange) @F/4 #2 Light fixture @F/4 #3 Row houses (Nutheschlange) @F/5.6 #4 Highrise building - partial view @F/5.6 #5 Abutment @F/4 #6 Lichen @F/4 and @MFD #7 Spikes @F/4 - processed to taste #8 Blossoms @F/4 and @MFD Sony ILCA-99M2 with a Leitax-ed MM-version of the lens JPG files from RAW converted in ACR - no processing if not otherwise mentioned |

Nice rendering this lens. Especially #7.
I would love to have the 180/2.8 but it is quite expensive, this, or the 135/2.8 or 200/3.5 could be an alternative. Did you try any of these? |

Not yet. The 135mm and the 180mm have been on my list for a long time - but as you say, they are expensive.
