Contax 90mm f/2.8 Sonnar G Series Lens

The Contax 90mm f/2.8 Sonnar G is one of the most beloved portrait and short telephoto lenses for the Contax G series rangefinder system. Known for its razor-sharp rendering, beautiful Zeiss color reproduction, and signature smooth bokeh, it’s a go-to for portraits, landscapes, and compressed street scenes. Compact and lightweight, it balances beautifully on the G1 or G2 while delivering exceptional optical performance.

Condition: Good

This lens is in good cosmetic condition, showing minor scuffs and handling marks on the barrel consistent with normal use. The focus and aperture rings operate smoothly. Optically, the lens has mild internal fog—a common occurrence in vintage lenses—that may reduce contrast slightly, especially when shooting against bright light or at small apertures. The glass is otherwise clean, with no scratches, haze, or fungus, and the aperture blades are oil-free and snappy.

A classic Zeiss portrait lens that’s perfect for Contax G shooters looking to expand their kit or experiment with a slightly lower-contrast look for creative effect.
