Subject: [Leica] Summilux-R 1:1.4/80

Just bought a second hand 80mm F1.4 that was in near mint condition for 945
GBP. Optically it appears to be perfect so I am more than happy.

However, I assume by the fact that it's marked "Leitz Wetzlar" around the
front element that it is quite long in the tooth. Did I pay a fair price for
an old lens? The serial # is 3399xxx. Interestingly though, the lens cap is
marked "Leica".

Thanks,
Paul.
