To go along with my Nikon SP that I'm selling, here are all my lenses for it:

Voigtlander 21mm f/4 SC Skopar. I bought this lens new and barely used it at 
all. There is some bag wear on the front cap but otherwise the lens is new.
Aperture clicks nicely and the blades are quite clean.
Comes with original packaging and the never-mounted quick focusing collar.
Included in asking price is a 21mm Leica finder. The plastic one. This one 
had the foot cracked a few years ago so it doesn't lock like a brand new one 
does but it fits quite snugly in a camera shoe and has never dropped.

Nikkor 3.5cm f/1.8. It's pure magic and saddens me so much to have to sell 
it.
I traded up my already fantastic f/2.5 Nikkor lens for this one last summer. 
The images wide open just blew me away and secured my loyalty to the Nikon 
RF system. I digress.
This lens is used. Not hard but it's got more wear than all the others.
Front element has some coating marks and the rear has a couple as well. 
Internally the lens has some dust and maybe a slight bit of haze. The rare 
earth glass does show a few bubbles.
The aperture clicks very nicely and is spot on. No oil on the blades but 
there is some wear that is buffing them a bit brighter but it makes no 
difference in the images.
Focus action is well damped and smooth. This lens isn't one that can be 
focused with the wheel on the camera, nor should it be because the elements 
and optical module are pretty heavy. The damping is just about perfect.
Cosmetically, the lens has some paint wear on the barrel and a bit of 
brassing on the aperture ring.
No tool marks anywhere or scratches in the finish.
Voigtlander rear cap and generic front cap as well as the original leather 
case are included.

Nikkor 10.5cm f/2.5. The lens is marked EP on the flange release.
This lens is almost perfect.
All the glass elements are free of any coating marks or scratches. There are 
some glass bubbles that I thought were dust particles. There is also a very 
slight amount of haze but it's never affected any images.
Aperture clicks very nicely as well. The blades do show some oil.
Focus action is beautiful. Smooth and perfectly damped.
Cosmetically it is excellent with only a few very light marks near the 
chrome base.
Lens comes with the original plastic NKK rear cap marked T for telephoto 
lenses. Also comes with the proper button-type clamp on hood with Japan but 
no Nippon Kogaku marking. A newer era "tired" Nikkor front cap is included.

Nikkor 13.5cm f/3.5. Lens marked EP.
This lens I got on a whim and never actually used it.
The glass is flawless as far as I can tell.
Under the front element there is a faint amount of haze but otherwise this 
lens is excellent. No dust, no coating marks or scratches.
The aperture feels excellent and clicks well, as it should. The blades do 
show some oil.
Focus action is very well damped and perfectly smooth.
Cosmetically the lens is excellent with only a few very small marks on the 
focusing barrel, probably from wandering around in my own bag.
Lens comes with the original plastic NKK rear cap marked T for telephoto 
lenses as well as the original Nippon Kogaku front cap, Nippon Kogaku hood 
and original leather case.
