It’s 15cm/150mm/6in focal length plants it firmly in the wide or super-wide category depending on what format you shoot. It is ideal for architectural interiors and exteriors, wide landscapes and panoramic views due to it’s distortion free qualities.

From Carl Zeiss Jena Photo Lenses Catalog 1933:

“The Dagor f/9 is a rapid wide angle lens. Like the f/6.8 Dagor it is a symmetrical double anastigmat. It’s field of view is still greater than that of the f/6.8 Dagor. By stopping down, the useful angular field can be increased to almost 100º notwithstanding the high aperture ratio of f/9, thus allowing easy focusing on the round glass screen. For the actual exposure, in order to ensure grater sharpness over the whole field is ti advisable to stop down to f/18 or less, according to the angle which it is desired to embrace. The f/9 Dagor is particularly suitable for use as a wide angle lens for indoor work, architecture, panoramas and also, by reason of it’s freedom from distortion at wide angles, for photogrammetric work.”
