Overview

The Kindermann color-germany 90mm f/2.8 MC is a premium slide projector lens repurposed for photography. Optically, it offers improved center sharpness and color rendition over standard 85mm projector lenses, with smoother bokeh and better correction, approaching apochromatic quality. However, like most projector lenses, corner sharpness is weak, and performance varies with distance. Build is typically metal with multi-coating, but details are unspecified. It suits portrait photographers seeking a characterful, affordable alternative to modern lenses, though it cannot match modern resolution in the corners.
