Schneider-Kreuznach 180mm f/4.5 Xenar
The Schneider-Kreuznach Xenar 180mm f/4.5 is a large format lens with a 4-element, 3-group Tessar-type design. With a 217mm image circle and 62-degree angle of view, it covers 4x5in format with generous movements or serves as a normal lens for larger formats. At 410g with an M 49 filter thread, it bridges the gap between the lighter shorter Xenars and the heavier long-focal-length versions.
