Rodagon –
The Rodagon lens is superior to most of the conventional macro lenses in resolution power and contrast.
The 6 element design guarantees the resolution of the finest details while maintaining a uniformly high contrast from the image center to the the edges. As the lens is nearly independent with regard to magnification scale, top quality is ensured from mini-prints right up to high enlargements. The recommended working aperture is reached by stopping down by only 2 stops from open aperture.
All Rodagon lenses are equipped with an illuminated f-stop display, a practical pre-set aperture and a click-stop diaphragm which can be switched to stepless control (expect for the 180 mm lens). As an alternative, the Rodagon 28 mm is available in a smaller barrel with a 32.5 mm thread mount.
