Combined with the legendary sharpness of the Tessar 50mm f\/2.8 lens, it is a completely transparent, satisfyingly unique tool that completely changes how you interact with analog street photography.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eCarl Zeiss Jena Werra 1\u003c\/b\u003e 35mm Viewfinder Film Camera Body (S\/N: 5726726)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8,1,0\"\u003eIntegrated \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"11\"\u003eCarl Zeiss Jena Tessar 50mm f\/2.8\u003c\/b\u003e Prime Lens\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8,2,0\"\u003eMatching Reversible Matte Aluminum Combination Lens Cap \/ Lens Hood\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"9\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"10\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,0,0\"\u003eBrand: \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"10,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"7\"\u003eCarl Zeiss Jena (Werra)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,1,0\"\u003eModel: \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"10,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"7\"\u003eWerra 1 (Olive Green)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,2,0\"\u003eCamera Type: Compact Film Camera\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,3,0\"\u003eFilm Format: 35mm Roll Film (Standard 135 Format)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,4,0\"\u003eLens Mount: Fixed Prime Lens\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,5,0\"\u003eFocal Length: 50mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,6,0\"\u003eMaximum Aperture: f\/2.8\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,7,0\"\u003eShutter Type: Synchro-Compur or Prestor Mechanical Leaf Shutter\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,8,0\"\u003eFocus Type: Manual Scale \/ Zone Focus Only\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,9,0\"\u003eCategory: 1.
