Robust Build

The Contax 135mm f/2.8 is a **prime** telephoto lens designed for **full-frame** **SLR** cameras using the **Contax/Yashica** mount. With a fixed **135mm** focal length and a maximum aperture of **f/2.8**, it provides a classic telephoto perspective alongside a relatively wide maximum opening for the focal length. The lens is **manual focus** only, placing full control in the hands of the photographer and suiting a thoughtful, deliberate approach to image-making. There is **no image stabilization**, so technique matters when shooting handheld. A **55mm** filter thread allows for easy use of standard screw-in filter accessories. Weighing **600g**, the lens has a solid physical presence consistent with the build standards of vintage SLR telephoto glass. Whether used on a period-correct Contax or Yashica SLR body or adapted to a modern mirrorless system, this **prime** lens delivers a straightforward 135mm telephoto shooting experience with an f/2.8 maximum aperture.

Fixed focal length delivers consistent optical performance well-suited to portraiture, sport, and detail photography.

f/2.8 Maximum Aperture

Native fit for Contax and Yashica SLR bodies, and adaptable to most modern mirrorless systems via widely available adapters.

Designed to cover a full-frame image circle with no vignetting on 35mm film or full-frame digital sensors.

Full-Frame Coverage

Fully manual focus operation suits deliberate shooting styles and adapts well to mirrorless systems with focus-assist tools.

Manual Focus Design

A common filter size, making compatible polarizers, ND filters, and other accessories straightforward to source.
