Does Phase One has T&S lens?

Physical casing was redone. Optics were recoated and the tolerances supposedly tightened but in our experience real world performance was only modestly increased and the sample-variation which plagued the 45mm (one would be terrible, another good, and another very good) was still present in the Phase branded version - possibly less so, but hard to say conclusively without more total samples.

It's not a bad lens, but it was not what we hoped for when the lens was announced.

Are there different version of that lens? Do they all fit Phase One DF?
There are different Hartblei versions for 35mm and Medium Format.

For the Medium Format Hartblei, there are a few different variations, the t/s super rotater usually being the most sought after. They come is several mounts (Mam, Contax, Pentacon, etc.)----you'll want the Mamiya (Phase) mount to use with the Mamiya/Phase cameras.

Sure would be neat if Phase offered something like Hassy's HTS 1.5 option in addition to the upcoming Schneider t/s.... :)
