Lens Overview — Bronica 75mm f/2.8 Zenzanon MC
Key Features — Bronica 75mm f/2.8 Zenzanon MC
75mm Standard Prime: Equivalent to roughly 40mm in 35mm terms on the ETR's 645 format, making it a natural everyday focal length for portraits, documentary, and general shooting.
f/2.8 Maximum Aperture: Relatively fast for a medium format standard prime, allowing usable shooting in lower light and moderate background separation.
Zenzanon MC Multicoating: Bronica's multi-coating treatment reduces flare and ghosting, improving contrast and color fidelity when shooting in mixed or backlit conditions.
Native Bronica ETR Mount: Designed exclusively for the ETR system, fitting ETR, ETRS, and ETRSi bodies without any adapter.
Leaf Shutter Design: The shutter is built into the lens rather than the body, enabling flash sync at all shutter speeds — a practical advantage for studio and outdoor flash work.
Manual Focus Only: Smooth manual focus ring suited to the deliberate, considered shooting style typical of medium format film photography.

Description — Bronica 75mm f/2.8 Zenzanon MC
The Bronica ETRS 75mm f/2.8 Zenzanon MC is a medium format prime lens built natively for the Bronica ETR mount. With a fixed 75mm focal length placing it in the standard range, this lens is a natural fit for day-to-day shooting on Bronica ETR system cameras. Its f/2.8 maximum aperture provides solid light-gathering capability for a medium format standard prime.
Focus is manual, keeping the shooting experience deliberate and hands-on. The lens weighs 450g and features a 62mm filter thread, making it compatible with a wide variety of front-mounted filters. As a prime lens, the optical design is fixed and purpose-built, with no zoom range to compromise.
The Zenzanon MC name reflects Bronica's multicoated lens series. There is no image stabilization present in this lens, which is typical for manual-focus medium format glass. If you're shooting with a Bronica ETR body and need a reliable standard prime that requires no adaptation, the 75mm f/2.8 Zenzanon MC is a direct, native fit.
