This Carl Zeiss 500mm f8 Tele-Tessar is a long telephoto lens for the Hasselblad V medium format system. The 500mm f8 Tele-Tessar is one of the longest lenses made for the system, offering exceptional reach for landscape, wildlife, photojournalism or even sports (why not!) photography.  This lens was a favorite of NASA and the JPL for their scientific needs as well. For such a large lens, it has a relatively simple optical design of five elements in three groups, with a narrow 9° field of view. Its minimum focusing distance of 8.5m means you will not be working close to your subjects, in case you prefer having the breathing room. This lens weighs in at 2100g (just over 74oz). It has a front filter thread of 86mm.

As a "C" lens, this 500mm f8 Tele-Tessar is fitted with a Synchro-Compur leaf shutter with speeds from 1s to 1/500, plus Bulb mode for long exposures.
