The standard lens of the CONTAREX, the six-element ZEISSB-PLANAB fi'2, 50 mm, ranks among the most famous lenses in the world today. Particular advantagesof this lens are outstanding flatness of field and an unusuallywide focusing range" With CONTAREXyou can take pictures as close as 11 inches from the subject (15 inches from the focal plane). No supplementary lenses or special viewfinders are required for these amazingclose-ups! There is no need to go through labo- rious calculationsto determine the ex- posure f actor when taking close-up pictures.The ZEISSB-PLANAR fi2,50 mm as well as all other 25, 35, 50 and 55 mm CONTAREXlenses features automaticex- posure compensation which automat- ically adjusts the aperture as you focus the lens for close-up work. Two additional standard lenses are available for the CONTAREX,the ZEISS TESSARf12.8, 50 mm, and the ZEISS PLANARf11.4,55 mm. The ZEISSTESSAR fi2.8, 50 mm can be used as close as 10 inches(14 inches from the film plane). The ultra-fast ZEISSPLANAR f 11.4, 55 mm lens is ideally suited for avail- able light as well as for night photo- graphy. Closest focusing distance with this lens is 14 inches (18 inches from the film plane). Both lenses incorporate automatic aperture correction for close-ups. { Theseinterior and close-uppictures have lreen taken with the same lens. the ZEISS B-PI-ANAR.Theclose-uo distance was I 1 inches.

(1901) and 29, Margaret St, Regent St, London W (1901) The founder, Carl Zeiss (1816-1888) was born in Weimar, the son of a cabinet maker and ivory carver. He graduated from school in 1834, qualified to be apprenticed to the Grand Dukes Instrument maker, Dr Koerner, and attended academic courses as well as working as apprentice. Next he travelled from Jan. 1838 to Oct. 1845 to study in Stuttgart, Darmstadt, Vienna, and Berlin to broaden his experience. Back at home, he studied chemistry and higher mathematics. By May 1845, he felt well enough qualified to apply to the County Administration at Weimar for permission to found "An establishment for the production of advanced mechanical devices", hoping for a relationship with the University to advance designs. Money was tight with capital of 100 Thalers (possibly £100) only, but in Nov. 1846, he opened at 7, Neugasse. It remained a small business for years, as it took some 20 years for the University relationship to be productive, and he often grew weary of the trial and error methods traditionally used in the trade. Much of the production was of microscopes- often relatively simple ones by modern standards, such as dissection viewers. Then in 1863, a young lecturer Ernst Abbe (1840-1905) joined the University to teach physics and astronomy. Zeiss approached him in 1866 for cooperation in the design of improved systems and this lead to new ideas, eg in the Abbe refractometer (1869), a comparator and a spectrometer.

    The Zorki Cameras - Part 1

    Australian Photographic Collectors’ Society, Inc. :: From Back Focus #73 The Zorki Cameras - Part 1 Text & Photos from Stefan Sztromajer In 1948 in The Krasnogorskij Mechaniczeskij Zavod the production of the Leica like miniature cameras called Zorki began. These cameras were similar to the FEDs, produced in parallel by the Charkovskij Kombinat. At fi rst the production was rather limited as the plant was designated for the quite different produc- tion. In 1949 the small number of cameras were produced under the name “FED Zorki” - now very rare indeed. The serial production of the Zorki cameras began in 1950. From the beginning the standard focal distance of all Zorki cameras was equal to 28.8 mm. so theoretically every body would accept every Zorki and later FED lens, as its mount thread diameter is 39mm. I say “theoretically”, as on the beginning the production was not always enough carefully tested, probably there was an optimistic opinion, being that the most common use of the camera would be on sunny days when f/8 – f11 aperture value would be the best choice. The Zorki is very similar to the chrome edition of the Leica II. And no wonder to the early FED. Looking at the front of the camera (from left to right) (Fig. 1) we will see the large fi lm transport knob, provided with the frame counter, the tiny lever for uncoupling the transport mechanism after the fi lm is exposed, the shutter release button, provided with the cable thread, the shutter setting dial, the rangefi nder, and the fi nder windows, plus the knob for rewinding of the exposed fi lm.

    THE CONNOISSEUR AND TH E ......-~ONlIrAX Photo by Franz Fiedler Afternoon aun, September, 'I... ec . with 112 Sonnar at 115.6 I. THE IDEAL MINIATURE CAMERA Due to the perfection of the miniature camera, amateur photography during the past few years has developed along altogether fresh lines. The extraordinarily universal performance of a high-class modern miniature camera is chiefly due to thc fact that even under difficult conditions as regards light, movement of the object etc., well exposed and very sharply defined negatives, capable of consider­ able enlargement, can be obtained. In order to obtain these results, however, the use of a sufficiently fine-grained film is essential for the repro­ duction of very fine detail. Several makes of cine-negative film possess the required properties to a high degree, and for this reason the Contax has been designed for use with a high-class cine negative film of standard width (35 mm.). Apart from thc film question, however, the design of the camera itself must fulfil, in all respects, a number of conditions, if results of first-rate quality are to be obtained. Above all, the camera must be equipped with lenses of such optical correction that the optical definition enables full use to bc made of the fine grain of the negative. The necessary sharpness of the negatives is therefore 2 first of all obtained by the use of a suitable film and of high - quality optical equipment. To a considerable extent, however, sharpness is also dependent upon min u tel y accura te focus sing, which entails a focussing mechanism of easy and rapid operation.
