Description: Orestor 2.8/135 is a masterpiece of the Meyer-Optik manufactory, nicknamed the "bokeh monster" for its excellent picture and vivid image in the out-of-focus area in any shooting conditions. Lens for SLR cameras with M42 threaded connection. This lens is installed on modern SLR and mirrorless cameras via the appropriate adapter. MEYER-OPTIK lensesThe Orestor 2.8/135 body is made in the classic GDR 60s "zebra" style. Many German lenses of the VEB Pentacon conglomerate, and not only, were released with a similar design. Meyer-Optik Orestor 2.8/135 is the ancestor of the Pentacon 2.8/135 lens series. Hugo Meyer's optical company became part of Pentacon, and all lenses, except for the Domiplan, were now called Pentacon. This continued until 1991.

In the 1930s, under the direction of Stefan Röschlein, the Telemegor 1:5.5 was developed. If the aperture ratio was not enough, an alternative was offered - the Primotar 3.5/135 and 3.5/180. However, these long-range lenses were modifications of the Tessar design, which did not allow for compact lenses with a large focal length. Long-focus Primotars were quite bulky, and by 1960 were already considered obsolete.
