Schneider 400mm f/5.6 APO Tele Xenar Compact MRC Lens Copal 3 Linhof 4x5 MINT!
Schneider 400mm f/5.6 APO Tele Xenar MRC Compact lens in black copal #3 shutter, the last version made of a legendary piece of glass. This lens is in beautiful shape, glass is free of scratches/haze/fungus/cleaning marks and the shutter is working properly at all speeds. Includes genuine Linhof Technika Copal 3 lens board.
This lens is an excellent longer lens and good match for Linhof Technika as well as all 4x5 cameras. It works perfectly with infinity focus on a Master Technika by extending the upper focusing track to the 2nd click stop position.
It is the longest focal length you can feasibly use on a Technika without extended lens boards setup.
Includes mounting ring & board spacer and original lens caps. Rare to find one in such nice condition.
The Apo-Tele-Xenar 5.6/400 mm is ideal for field camera use and because of its compact design is easily mounted on on all large format cameras. The field photographer gets a much needed long focal length compact lens that is lighter in weight and requires a shorter bellows extension than conventional lenses.
The product photographer gets a sharp telephoto lens that yields film that can be digitally scanned without losing any of the original detail. Schneider’s coating designers have developed a revolutionary new coating called MRC. This new coating is harder and more durable, less subject to fogging, and easier to clean. The APO-TELE XENAR 400mm is the first lens to use this new coating technology.
The APO-TELE-XENAR 5.6/400 COMPACT MRC has an image circle of 250mm at infinity and covers the 5" x 7" format ( 13cm x 18cm ) with ample movement.
