Overview

The Steinheil München Quinon 55mm f/1.9 is a vintage lens appreciated for its 'character' and 'rounded, luminous rendition'. It offers good sharpness wide open with smooth bokeh, though stopping down improves bokeh noticeably. Build quality is typical of its era, with a metal barrel and smooth focus. It suits photographers seeking a retro look on digital cameras via adapters, especially for portraits and scenes where a traditional aesthetic is desired.
