Leica 50mm Summicron Collapsible for Leica Thread Mount (L39).  This lens can also be used on Leica M Mount, or almost any other camera, using cheap adapters.

Condition:
-Very Clean Body
-Minor surface scratching / cleaning marks on front element (not likely to affect photos)
-Some light haze on inner element, visible when shining a flashlight through from the back of the lens. (could be used as-is for great photos, or completely corrected by a CLA)
-Smooth Focus throughout the range
-Perfectly working aperture with only a small amount of oil on the blades when aperture is completely closed.

See the included photos for examples of photo quality using this EXACT lens.  These photos were taken on a full frame camera, and are straight out of the camera - not edited.  They were all taken wide open at f/2, which would be the most susceptible to image issues.  The photo of the turtle was taken mid-focus range.  The photo across the lake was at infinity.  The photo of the flower was at close focus.  These photos were taken in rather harsh lighting, and again, are straight out of the camera and unedited, to show the true image output of this specific lens.

This lens includes front Leica cap, and a generic lens case.

I will ship to the lower 48 states only.  I will pack the lens well, and shipping includes insurance. No international shipping.  Ask any questions before bidding.


I have been using and collecting Leica camera equipment for years, and unfortunately need to sell off the majority of my gear.  Please see my other auctions for additional lenses and cameras.  Looking for something specific?  Ask me if I have it, and I might.
