 |    Leica Summicron-R 50mm f/2 |
Sold
Price: $350.00
Payment method: PayPal
Item condition: 9 Shows signs of use, but very clean
For sale: a variety of manual focus lenses, all of which can be adapted to Canon EOS or other mounts. Some of these are with adapters, some not, but all are in great shape and have served me well. It's time to lighten the load a bit, as I thin out the collection. Prices include Paypal and shipping to US and Canada.
Leica Summicron-R 50mm f/2 - this is a nice lens, it's the original version of the Summicron-R, which is the same optically as the later version. Excellent bokeh, sharp wide open, and amazing build quality with aluminum and brass throughout. Very smooth operation. Some minor wear visible on close inspection. Glass is fine, no fungus or scratches. A few minor specks of dust but nothing out of the ordinary or that would affect image in any way. Complete with a nice Leica-EOS adapter, the original reversible hood, and the factory lens cap, plus a genuine EOS rear cap. Asking $350.

 | | Olympus 24mm f/3.5 OM Zuiko shift lens |
Available
Price: $1,800.00
Payment method: PayPal
Item condition: 10 Preowned equipment, but appears as new
Olympus OM Zuiko 24mm f/3.5 shift lens - this lens is a rare jewel, perhaps the pinnacle of Olympus' lens manufacturing expertise. It surpasses Canon's 24mm TSE mk1 easily both in image quality and range of shift. It was the first 24mm shift lens ever built by anyone, it uses extra-low dispersion glass and is an expanded and improved-upon version of the reknown Olympus 18mm lens formula. This is the best copy I have ever seen, and it was my keeper after going through a few of these to find the best example. It also comes with a custom SKGrimes filter adapter system, allowing use of 95mm filters with this lens, which normally has no way to take filters. A 95mm B+W kasemann slim polarizer is included, along with an extra o-ring for the SKGrimes filter holder. It's an ingenious design, and the holder itself cost $500, plus another $400 for the filter, which is no longer available from B+W last time I checked. The lens is in mint condition, I can find no flaws with it. Condition is as-new, and it includes both caps (the front one is a machined aluminum one), along with the dedicated OM lens case for this lens. Asking $1800 for the whole package: lens, filter, SKGrimes adapter, case, caps, etc.

Olympus OM Zuiko 28mm f/3.5 lens - Another remarkable Oly lens. Among the sharpest and smallest 28mm lenses ever made. It is superior to the OM 28/2.8, and is astonishingly small and light. Great condition - this was the best of 5 copies I had, in an effort to find the best example. In near-mint shape, I can find no flaws with this lens.

 | | Minolta Rokkor 21mm f/2.8 Rokkor-X lens with rare hood |
Sold
Price: $375.00
Payment method: PayPal
Item condition: 9 Shows signs of use, but very clean
Minolta Rokkor 21mm f/2.8 lens (Rokkor-X) with rare factory hood - This is an exceptional and rare wide-angle lens from Minolta. Not pictured but also included is the rare factory clamp-on hood for this lens. Cosmetically it is in great shape, a few very minor signs of use may be visible on the body of the lens upon close inspection, but nothing significant. Glass is near-mint with no scratches , fungus or haze. Operationally it's working perfectly. I had planned to have Jim Buchanan convert this to EOS mount, but haven't gotten around to it. It's in the original untouched Minolta MC/MD mount, which can be adapted to Sony, or also to EOS. This is an excellent fast 21mm lens, and is essentially equal to the vaunted Olympus 21mm f/2 lens, even surpassing it in contrast at some apertures. Asking $375 for the package including lens, caps, and hood.

Vivitar 35mm f/1.9 lens Olympus OM mount- a great design, among the fastest 35mm lenses available at the time, or even today.

This example is in great shape, and is in the Olympus OM mount, easily adapted to EOS or Nikon, among others. No problems, works great, clean glass with no flaws and mechanically excellent.
