Rodenstock 50mm f/2.8 Rodagon Enlarging Lens for 35mm Format Films.

The lens type Rodagon, with brilliant reproduction over the whole scale range of conventional enlargers, has become the universal workhorse of both demanding amateurs and professionals in practical use.

The 6 element design guarantees the resolution of the finest details while maintaining a uniformly high contrast from the picture center to the edges. As the lens is nearly independent with regard to scale, top quality is ensured from mini-prints right up to high enlargements.

All Rodagon lenses are equipped with click-stop diaphragms which can be disabled for focal lengths from 28 mm to 135 mm and all lenses are provided with a pre-set aperture.

The excellent imaging quality of the Rodagon enlarging lenses is also utilized for close-up and macro shots. Here sharper results can be obtained than with macro lenses. As a focussing aid for shots with 35 mm, video or film cameras, Rodenstock offers the "Modular-Focus" with 25 mm of extension and straight-line movement.
