PRODUCT FEATURE
This is a 3 Cam mount lens, which fully works on Leicaflex, SL, SL2 cameras with limited functions, in the case of LEICA R3 to LEICA 9. Shutter/aperture balance is carried out mechanically.
This lens could be manually focused on all Leica M Range cameras, film or digital like M10/M240, most DSLRs cameras as well as mirrorless, such as Canon EF-Mount, Nikon, F-Mount, Panasonic L-Mount, or Sony E-Mount cameras, and cinema/motion camera systems with a proper adapter. (i.e. Sony, Fuji, Canon, Nikon, Alexa, BMD, Red etc.)
Please do your own research if you plan to use this lens on non-Leica system. An improper or cheap adapter may cause extensive damage to the lens. A return is not accepted if you find the lens does not work or is damaged because of improper or cheap adapter you apply
WARNING: If you plan to use this lens on your camera, your extra caution is required. Hold the lens barrel, not FOCUSING and/or APERTURE rings while you try to attach it to your camera, or an adapter which is attached to the camera mount. Otherwise, the FOCUSING or APERTURE rings might be snapped off or disengaged from the focusing system, resulting in damage. The repair cost for this damage may cost you about $300.00. Please note that the buyer is responsible for the damage repair if this happens.
The condition of the focusing and aperture rings you have purchased is clearly described as being in working condition when the lens is listed. Then, again we will make a final inspection before we pack a lens for shipping. I, as the owner of this store, will personally inspect the lens and certify that the focus and aperture rings are in working condition in the packing slip, which will be included in the package. Therefore, we will not accept a return of the lens due to the damage caused by careless handling even though you may claim you have not held the focus ring when attaching the lens to your camera or to an adapter.

RATING SCALE
OPTICS: *Some brand new lenses may occasionally have a slight amount of micro dust visible inside the lens elements. This is a result of the manufacturing process and will not affect image quality or resolution. As a result, previously owned lenses like this one will generally exhibit the same consistence. Also, sometimes, some micro dust can be attracted to the glass surface, and it can be blown away.
Microscopic Dust Level:
10/10: No dust or extraordinarily little if any.
9/10: A little amount being visible.
8/10: Minor amount as expected for age, that will not affect any image quality.
7/10: Moderate amount, will not affect any image quality.
6/10: Normal amount as expected for age, that will not affect any image quality.
5/10 – 10/10: We do not carry any lens with this level.
Difference between Scratch and Cleaning Marks on Glasses
*Scratch on the Glass of a lens: You can feel when you gently run a fingernail across it. A scratch mark if it is deep enough may affect image quality.
