Description - This is a lower-cost lens by Meyer of Tessar construction,
offering very fine performance; compared the Primotar-E it is
slightly faster but has pre-set aperture. An interesting extra
feature is that it is a kind of manual "GN" lens: on its
underside, the aperture ring and the stationary part of the
barrel have extra sets of markings, by setting the distance
against the guide number of the flashgun the proper
aperture is set to ensure correct flash exposure.
