Carl Zeiss Protar 110/18 German cult classic wide large format lens CLA works


Vintage lens made by Carl Zeis lena.  I did not have time look for coverage but as minimum 10x15 cm but probably more. It is wide lens.

There is 24 thread on rear end. Made from brass. on ring is written mm 12-8-6-43. I do not understand

Very rare, this is second specimen during 3 decades that I see.

Description:

Ser. No. 217688, uncoated.  Diaphragms with 10 blades. Coverage I do not know, google yourself.

Cosmetically is this lens EXCELLENT+. Minor wear on barrel only, look at pictures.

With lens captive ring and 10x15 horizontal camera I believe for Tosca.

Glass on lens is clean, no fungus, no scratches. Very nice glass. Diaphragm blades do not form ideal ring. There are all of them, I opened it and looked (by cleaning) simple 2 of them are not "guided" by ring firmly, they can wiggle a bit therefore circle is not ideal.
We are repairing, overhauling, cleaning and lubricating every camera, lens, binocular, microscope ... to restore its original functionality as much as possible. However we are not disassembling it completely and clean every part in ultrasonic cleaner separately if not necessary. If I am not satisfied how something works - considering item age and construction - I will write about it in description. You do not need ask me if it works, we did everything possible to repair it, and I believe for some groups is our repair workshop between the most qualifying in world. Get it working better can only better repairman (or with better replacement part source). However I am not manufacturing them, therefore always read carefully my description about glass, etc. Btw, if you need repair some older mechanical camera, lens, accessory, binocular or microscope you can always ask me.
Air mail shipping and handling charge is WORLDWIDE  $16 REGISTERED (letter), it has automatic insurance coverage up to €50 (Euro) per packet, if higher insurance is required than cheapest available shipping option (worldwide same) is $30 INSURED PACKET (wait for my invoice if you want use it). They do exist express options (EMS and business packet) to most countries of world however cost are different (expensive) you need ask about them separately.

If post will confirm that insured packet was lost or damaged (you need claim by delivery) I will replace it - when impossible refund the full amount. I need wait for post confirmation, too many crooks lately trying to have both item and money.

It is included in it incombinable $5 packing and handling charge that remains by combined shipping. Rest of charge I will combine and calculate just true shipping charge for packet to your country if you will purchase more items.

I have declared up to 10 days handling time for my items. I need this time to control and last time test every item, for items shipped out of European union put it in custom office that needs 2-3 days prepare documents and transfer packet to post office. Expected postal delivery time is usually up to 2 weeks but delays simple happens, for example in USA packet often need more days for security control in custom office. For these reasons I choose to check ebay shipping option "economy shipping ... 11-20 business days", I hope that you will get as quick as possible (in most cases you can calculate get packet 1.5-2 weeks after payment date if you are in European union, 2-3 weeks for rest of world) but really I can not affect work of custom and post offices worldwide anyway and delays can happen. Online trackable it is in some countries, for example USA, China, Japan. Contact me before making any Ebay or Paypal claim, PLEASE!

Combined shipping saves often costs per item considerably but not in all situations, ask about exact items. By very cheap item is possible ship uninsured - this will cost $3 less, but I will do it only if you will declare that you will not make any claim if packet will be lost by transport.
Look at my other auctions for more camera items!

Greetings from Slovakia and happy bidding!

Sorry, usually I can't reply questions during Friday-Sunday. If is some difference between description and picture usually is mistake in description, by cameras, lenses, prisms, etc, picture always show actual item (some small items like extension tubes, flash shoes, etc can be exception). I will correct all links until Tuesday.
