SOLD: 45mm f3.5 Hartblei Super Rotator Mamiya Mount

I have had five copies of this lens and this is by far the best one of all of them. This is the latest Super Rotator that allowed for shift or rise/fall independent from the swings, so you can set either in any orientation you want. This lens works great even with my IQ180 back. It is a dedicated Mamiya mount lens (not the adapted Pentacon mount version). A very useful wideangle focal length, and in excellent shape all over! Only selling because I need funds for another tech cam lens.

SOLD: Asking $1700 shipped and paypal'd US -- will ship internationally, buyer pays actual shipping charges: email me

Anybody? This lens is hard to come by to begin with, and this is the best copy I've ever seen on top of that...

Hi Jack, So sorry for the typo, let me try that again. This lens doesn't allow for tilt, right?? Thank you, Ray

Ray, this lens is the Hartblei Tilt-Shift Super Rotator----and does allow tilt.

I don't think Jack will take offense if I tell you---Jack is about as picky as it gets with regard to lens quality. What others may deem as perfectly acceptable, Jack won't. So if he says this lens is the best he's seen, rest assured this is a smokin' good copy. Grab it if you're interested.

Hi Ken, thank you for the intel. OK, so let me get this right, this lens will work for tilts and shifts on my 645DF body and with my P40+, if so that sounds great. Jack could I please have dibs on this and I'll continue working with you about it later when I get home. [Jack, not sure if you recall, but I'm the person who got your 150D awhile ago] Thanks Ken and Jack, Ray

Hi Ray,

Of course I remember you! And everything Ken said is accurate too :). Unfortunately, another gentleman had beaten you out by a few hours and emailed me, and agreed to buy it. I am just getting around to marking it SOLD and saw this. I'll let him know you are interested if for whatever reason he decides it isn't for him.

Best,

Hi Jack, thank you for letting me know. I've now PMed Graham Welland about his 45. Thanks again, Ray

PS that 150 is just a beautiful lens. The term "scary sharp" comes to mind as not being at all over-stating it.
