Orion-15 28mm f:6, Rare

Description

The Soviet/Russian made Orion-15 is a high quality wide angle lens for the Leica type rangefinder cameras.

• Focal length: 28 mm
• Aperture: 1:6 (settings from 6 to 22) Note: at max. aperture (1:6) the aperture is partially closed – this is Orion’s design feature and it is normal.
