The Apo-Makro-Planar
®
 T
* 4/120 lens has been designed with 
the goal to create a medium format lens of outstanding 
performance and versatility. It covers subjects from infinity to life 
size (1:1) without additional accessories. And it uses the latest in 
optical glass with floating elements (FLE) to keep the performance 
on top level in the entire focusing range. 
The Apo-Makro-Planar
®
 T
* 4/120 lens even reaches the extreme 
image quality level of dedicated Carl Zeiss S-Planar
®
 high 
resolution copy lenses at life-size copying tasks, a unique benefit 
only available with Contax
®
 cameras. 
A basic type of lens design is chosen that maintains its 
performance characteristics very constantly on a high level over a 
wide range of reduction ratios or distances. Like from infinity to 
life-size (1:1). It is based on the Planar
®
 lens design type, which 
offers very good close-up potential in the first place and has 
therefore also been chosen as the basis for the ultra high 
resolution Carl Zeiss S-Planar
®
 lenses for the production of 
microchips, which are the most sophisticated lenses of our day. 
The Apo-Makro-Planar
®
 T
* 4/120 lens is targeted at the 
meticulous close-up photographer who is in full control of the
technical aspects of his picture taking situation, and who expects 
uncompromising image quality as reward for his efforts. He is 
used to do very careful and well thought placement of the focus 
himself, and he would not use the autofocus on his imaging 
projects. Considering this need from professional photographers 
and keen amateurs alike, the Apo-Makro-Planar
®
 T
* 4/120 lens 
is equipped with a high quality precision mechanism for smooth 
manual focusing and no autofocus. 
The aperture ranges from f/4 to f/45 for both a bright viewfinder 
image and adequate control of depth of field in close-up 
photography. All aperture settings can be used with truly 
professional photo results, even wide open. This is due to both 
the inherent qualities of the Carl Zeiss Planar
®
 lens design and 
apochromatic color correction. Considering the outstanding 
imaging potential of this lens it has been kept remarkably 
lightweight and compact. 
Preferred use: Close-ups of all kind, beauty, flowers and 
blossoms, nature, products, industrial, subjects with demanding 
details, documentation
