25/2.8 Zeiss Distagon for Contarex

Oddly enough Zeiss did not produce a 28mm lens like virtually every camera manufacturer that they were competing with, and the 25mm Distagon was the only lens available between the 18mm Distagon (or the 21mm Biogon prior to 1967), and the 35mm Distagon.

The Zeiss product code for the lens is 11.2408.
