A few spots are visible on the aperture blades but the aperture sets very smoothly and correctly with a crisp lock-in at the half-steps so there's nothing wrong there. The glass is absolutely pristine and offers not only legendary sharpness for a pre-asph tele, but deep rich colors and tones. I have in mind highly reasonable prices -- not like those that make you angry when you see them, because they're nuts -- and am within that range negotiable. The Elmarit (type 1, approx 1961) is supposed to sell for $600 to $900 but I paid less and can go somewhat lower than that range. Please contact me off list.
