Zeiss lenses for Contax on Canon EOS mount (Birger's)

[Mr. Paul White]

Since there's a bunch of adapters available out there and with good results, why isn't this route so mentioned like others?

Something that I could check on the wide angle lenses is the fact of the infinite is there right after the 2 meters. Wouldn't this be very cool for one man shooter type?

I mean the most common for a lot of people in these boards.

PS
Same offer from other lenses options? Or is it especifically a feature of the Contax?

Gordon,

It's basically a function of focal length.

[Gordon Prince]

Yes, but I think 2 meters is a reasonable range. Same for all wide lenses or no?
