Almost new (9 months-old from Rich Pinto @ Photo Village) & hardly used since I got a Summilux. Externally & mechanically perfect, but glass does have 2 tiny dust specks inside that have no discernible optical effect (present since the lens came out of the box). Comes w/box, case, hood, caps, & all documentation. $1000 Leitz collapsible f/4 9cm Elmar (c.1955). Nice user telephoto, perfect for travel. Glass has the usual slight haze & a few light cleaning marks. Aperture blades are clean & dry. Front unit collapses & extends smoothly. Focuses smoothly. Vulcanite is completely intact but the chrome on the rear portion bears some wear & scratches on the focus dial & opposite the distance scale (marked in feet). Comes w/modern rear cap & original front cap (I'll also throw in a B+W UV filter if buyer wants it). $295 Suggested prices include shipping in North America. Reasonable offers welcome, of course, & I'm willing to trade these lenses for, or towards, a 90mm Summicron-M ASPH/APO or Noctilux. I also have some excess Zeiss Ikon Contax bodies, lenses, & accessories & a Nikon RF 3.5cm lens, mostly in user condition, lying around that need adoption.
