[QUOTE="Eye-level, post: 54549, member: 6548"] Kevin Camera is like a candy shop. One of the things he offers for the princely sum of $2750 is a ultra rare all black 85/2 Sonnar made for the Zeiss Ikon Contarex that can be converted to F mount. I have talked with him and he tells me the conversion causes the lens to become a fixed aperture lens your choice of aperture but it will only be that single aperture...so if you have him fix it at 2.8 everytime you shoot you have to shoot at 2.8...crazy huh such an expensive lens to have only one aperture! The Zeiss Ikon Contarex lenses are reputed to be among the best lenses ever made for the 35mm format... [ATTACH=CONFIG]10508._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
