Schneider-Kreuznach APO-Componon Mod Lens

Focus Studio announced the release of a new modified lens, the “Schneider-Kreuznach APO-Componon 45mm F4.0″ Leica M mount in limited quantities from its online store.

This rare lens is available in limited quantities and is a modified version of the industrial lens, the “APO-Componon 4.0/45-0007 V-Mount Macro” made by Schneider (Germany) to M-mount. It features a smooth-moving, high-quality metal barrel and optical performance that meets the high standards of industrial use.

Excellent close-up shooting performance

The “APO-Componon 4.0/45” used in the modification is a high-resolution industrial lens used in machine vision, printed circuit board inspection, LCD and OLED display inspection, etc. While conventional lenses show a decline in optical performance as the shooting magnification increases, this lens is designed and corrected to provide high image quality at close-up shooting magnifications of 1:20 to 1:1.

Apochromatic Design

By adopting an apochromatic design, high resolution and accurate color expression are achieved even at the edges of the screen.

High-quality telescope

The lens barrel is manufactured and customized at an OEM factory that is particularly renowned for its quality among the affiliated factories of the SHOTEN brand. The silver metal lens barrel, which stands out for its high processing precision, has a classic and sophisticated appearance along with a smooth operation feel, and is said to give the owner a sense of joy.

Covers medium format sensors too

Schneider has announced that the image circle of the APO-Componon 4.0/45 is 43.2mm, but it can also be used with the 44×33 medium format sensors of the Fujifilm GFX series and Hasselblad X series without worrying about vignetting.
