For Sale:

See PHOTOS of all this stuff at http://www.2alpha.net/~pklein/forsale. The 
file names of the JPGs are self-explanatory.

** Leica IIIf Red Dial, beautiful shooter, LHSA rating EX (conservative). 
Take a look at the photos.  Normal use marks, but no abuse, no dents. A few 
minor scratches on chrome, minor pitting on slow speed dial, bright marks 
on top from finder. Scratches on baseplate.  Vulcanite perfect. Recently 
CLAed by DAG, including new RF mirror. Ready to shoot! $400.00

** Beautiful 50mm Nikkor f/1.4 lens in Leica screw mount. LHSA rating EX+. 
Highly collectible close-focusing version with black f-stop ring. Perfect 
glass. Some light scratches on barrel, no dings or dents.  Focus action 
velvet-smooth. Diaphragm oil-free, turns smoothly, with positive 
click-stops.  Recent CLA by DAG. A superb shooter. Includes generic front 
and rear caps, small Cosina hood, Soligor UV filter.  $350.00

** Original black Nikkor lens hood for 50mm f/1.4 Nikkor LTM lens (43mm). 
Good user condition, probably LHSA rating EX-. Fastening mechanism works 
fine. Has some scratches on outside and front edge, a little paint wear 
inside the hood where it reverses onto the lens.  Fits 43mm filter 
thread.  $50.00

** Leitz 50mm brightline finder (SBOOI).  LHSA rating EX-.  Bright marks on 
chrome, some separation inside, looks great when you view through 
it.  NOTE:  I will only sell this with the IIIf, or separately if the IIIf 
sells first. $175.00.

** Leitz 90mm f/2.8 M-mount Elmarit (classic early 60s).  Bought from 
Sherry Krauter.  LHSA rating EX.  Some bright marks on barrel, a couple of 
pits on the focusing ring. Great glass, superb mechanics.  $450 including 
matching reversible hood and cap (EX+), or $400 alone.

** Jupiter-9 85mm f/2 lens, Leica screw mount. Mfg. KMZ 1958, aluminum 
barrel, coated, 49mm filter thread, weighs only 11 oz (~300 gm).  Good 
glass. Normal, minor use marks and tarnish on the barrel, but no dings or 
dents. LHSA rating Ex to Ex+. Beautiful classic-Sonnar results at 2.5 
meters (8.25 feet) and farther, typical slight misfocus closer. Don't use 
it as a portrait/closeup lens and you'll love it for everything 
else.  Includes KMZ rear cap, generic front cap, finder. $75.00.

** Accura zoom finder, black and silver, detents at 28, 35, 50, 75, 85, 90, 
105, 135mm. This is a Japanese clone of the classic Tewe finder. Bigger 
image than Leitz Imarect, *much* more usable. LHSA rating VG. The detents 
are a bit worn, there's some bright marks, tarnish and paint wear, and a 
mark inside the front element. The zoom works fine.  It's a decent 
user.  Sorry, no picture of this one.  $45.00.

** Flash adapter to adapt standard flash plug to M2, M3.  $15.00
