Rodenstock Lenses Serial Numbers for 35mm Interchangeable lens cameras (羅敦司得可換鏡頭序列號)
Rodenstock was a well-known manufacturer of medium/large format lenses as well as enlarging lenses. From 1950s to early 1960s, they had produced some interchangeable Lenses for 35mm SLR and viewfinder cameras. Like many other Germany manufacturer, the lenses changed from chrome finish to black finish with focus/aperture ring in zebra style.
