Title: ZEISS Planar T* 1.4/85 (ZE) EF MOUNT - MINT

They're incredible lenses, but as I work more in cinematography than photography I've chosen to buy a set of cinema lenses, so these have just sat around in my house for the last year or so. I've owned then since around 2018 and they all were brought used. Location: Caterham, United Kingdom |
