150mm Schneider PQS Tele-Xenar for Rolleiflex Hy6 and 6000 series (used)

The 150mm Tele-Xenar is truly one of the jewels of the lens lineup for the Rolleiflex cameras.  It's lighter weight than the 180/2.8 and has a faster max shutter speed.   Very sharp with neutral rendering and beautiful bokeh.  I have compared this to the Zeiss Sonnar 150 and find the Schneider to be much more appealing in its rendering.  The Schneider lens will be sharp from wide open on down, and while both lenses reach the same peak sharpness, the Schneider just renders with a pleasing look while the Zeiss can be 'crunchy'.   Tele-Xenar is less prone to flare than the Zeiss as well.    I find this len to be well suited for portrait work but also excellent for landscape and product.  It shares the same bay VI filter and shade mount as many of the other system lenses.  

This copy is used with some very minor cosmetic signs of wear but excellent glass as you can see in the photos.  Comes with UV filter, lens shade, both front and rear caps as shown.
