History: The Jos. Schneider Xenar is very well known for its absolute flat and corrected field all over the image area. Its not only a very usefull portrait lens but also a very compact and rather lightweight companion for field work.

With its 300mm focal lenght this Xenar will work well for 5x7 up to 8x10 formats.

The condition of the lens is really good. There are not many large Xenars in this condition on the market. The black laquere shows some wear here and there, but the most important thing: the glass is in a very good condition! showing only very minimal cleaning marks, no haze and no fungus here.


The lens comes with its original flange.
