Description — Bronica 250mm f/5.6 Zenzanon-PG
The Bronica Zenzanon-PG 250mm f/5.6 is a prime telephoto lens designed exclusively for the Bronica GS mount system. With a fixed 250mm focal length and a medium format lens classification, it is built to work within the Bronica GS-1 camera ecosystem. The f/5.6 maximum aperture is typical for telephoto primes in this format class.
Focusing is entirely manual, placing creative and technical control directly with the shooter — a natural fit for the measured pace of medium format work. There is no image stabilization, so steady support is recommended when working at this focal length. The lens carries the Zenzanon-PG designation, identifying it as part of the dedicated GS-system lens family.
For GS-1 users looking to add telephoto reach to their kit within the native Bronica GS mount, this 250mm prime is a direct, no-adapter solution.
