  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

First Look - Schneider Xenon FF-Prime Lenses

just a test 75mm

WBJIEDlX8E1xPFs4

KETCH ROSSi peccato! la prox.
 

The case looks nice, but man I think they should have left more padding between the case wall and the lenses on the hinge side of the case. Especially since that's often the bottom.

I was thinking of that too...

EASY FIX...

Stefano, turn the Foam core upside down... :)


Then re-post a new pic...
 
Unfortunately not possible.
The case is also a trolley
Is not perfectly rectangular inside
Should I cut out foam!

No Stefano, in this case leave it as is.

However, FWI, lens cases IMO should never be wheeled, as the shaking going on thru the rolling is most definitely NOT good for the lenses, especially on the little Hard wheels as in this type of cases.
 
fully agree!!!
Only available in europe, nobody designed yet, original from Schneider shipped with lenses inside :-(

I just purchased the Xenon FF 35mm lens. Can someone recommend the right Lowepro (or similar) sized case for it?

Thanks
 
Ketch, is this how the official cases look for those in the states?...glad they chose the 4 hole option, but what about those who are getting the initial 5 lens set?...

There are different cases...

currently there are 4, 5 lens case out, and coming, and even a 6 lens case, but I would not be surprise to see an 8 lens case by next year... So that all Xenon lenses fit in one single case... :)
 
Not the factory case, but I bought this same 5 lens Nanuk case from Hot Rod Camera for my Xenons. Very happy with it!

This looks just fine. Would you point me to the model at Hot Rod´s page?. I was searching but can´t find this actual version. Thanks.
 
Roberto, it's not shown on their website. But send Illya Friedman an email (illyafriedman@gmail.com). He is the President of Hot Rod Camera, and a great guy, and he will make sure you are taken care of.
 
Tks a lot. Hoping to grow this thread with some stills in the near future... but I need a proper stroller to go outside with this babies ;)
 
I'm hearing sometime in July for the 100mm? Anyone else heard the same rumor?
