The lens type Rodagon, with brilliant reproduction over the whole scale
range of conventional enlargers, has become the universal workhorse of
both demanding amateurs and professionals in practical use.
Furthermore, the models with focal lengths up to 135 mm have proven to
be excellent macro lenses for SLR cameras and to be high-resolution
taking lenses for CCD cameras in combination with the Rodenstock
focusing device Modular-Focus.
The 6 elements design guarantees the resolution of the finest details
while maintaining a uniformly high contrast from the picture center to
the edges. As the lens is nearly independent with regard to
magnification scale, top quality is ensured from mini-prints right up
to high enlargements. The recommended working aperture is reached by
stopping down by only 2 stops from open aperture.
All Rodagon lenses are equipped with an illuminated f-stop display, a
practical pre-set aperture und a click-stop diaphragm which can be
switched to stepless control for focal lengths up to 135 mm. The
Rodagon 28 mm is also available in a smaller barrel with a 32.5 mm
thread mount, without pre-set aperture, without illumination of the
f-stop scale and with a click-stop aperture ring that cannot be
disabled.
