Serviced Meyer Optik Gorlitz TRIOPLAN 100/2.8 M42 w/ Case Near Mint


Trivia: An universal painterly/creative German manual focus lens in (easily adaptable) 42mm screw mount originally produced for 35mm film cameras such as Praktica (Pentacon, Contax, Praktiflex). 15 blades iris - bokeh (almost always perfectly rounded). Soap bubbly bokeh + (sort of) soft focus character.


Item condition: an item used previously, works. Repassed completely by my technician - the lens runs buttery smooth now and both aperture blades and glasses are very clean. Some very minor signs of age or previous use but nothing substantial. For detailed glass condition kindly examine my lamp collage of photos under the item gallery. The lens chassis shows very limited amount of typical age related aluminium surface degradation (eloxation). Glasses are generally fine, some very thin hairlines can be found when examined under a strong light source (even there very hard to spot) but will not have impact at any circumstances. Please manage your expectations adequate to buying a 60+ yo camera lens.

Overall, the lens looks great considering this is ≈1960 lens and should make very happy even collectors with elevated expectations and requirements.


Accessories: original Meyer leather case in very good condition, two original caps.
