Glass is perfect, black finish is too. Bought new 3 months ago. Used for 2 rolls only before shelving it and using a 35mm lens all the time. Includes box, lens instructions, leather case, caps, screw in lenshood. The mileage on this lens is probably less than most dealers' demos. $600. 35mm Summilux f1.4, s/n 3081677: Excellent condition: This is the generation prior to the aspherics. Made in Canada. Glass is perfect. Numeric markings are excellent. Minor paint wear on the lens, slight scuffing of the chrome mounting ring. Clip-on 2 piece lens hood (12 504) has 2 minor dents and slight paint wear. Includes front and rear caps . I've taken many memorable photos with this lens. Most recently, some available light photos at the Railroad Museum in Sacramento are stunningly beautiful. $700. 90mm Tele-Elmarit (fat) f2.8, s/n 2490696: Excellent condition: This is the 5 element, earlier tele-elmarit, made in Canada. Glass is perfect. Numeric markings are very good. Slight paint wear on focus ring. Small dent on lip of clip-on lenshood (12575). Includes front and rear caps. I recently took this lens along with me to New Orleans. The images this lens took at the French Quarter were very sharp and had great color rendition. I'm only selling it to fund a 75 summilux. $600. Terms are: Prices are firm. Shipping fees included, via US Postal Service Priority Mail, insured. Payment terms are COD or prepayment with a certified check.
