Schneider 480mm f/8.4 Apo-Symmar-L, Large Format Lens
with Copal #3 Shutter
The Apo-Symmar-L" series of lenses replaces the
well-proven original Apo-Symmar. As some glass types
have been phased out for environmental reasons,
newer designs with substitute formations were
necessary. Seizing the opportunity,
Schneider-Kreuznach has now completely re-designed
this successful, all-purpose lens to bring it up to
the current state-of-the-art of lens design and
fabrication. The covering power has been expanded in
nearly all cases and the imaging performance further
optimized. The current focal lengths and the
principle technical specifications are shown in the
table below. Used according to the maximum photo
format, the focal lengths between 120 and 480 mm
offered by the "L-Series" deliver normal perspective
pictures without wide angle or telephoto effects.
