Elgeet 12mm f1.2 C-mount $150

I have an Elgeet 12mm f1.2. Has one tiny rub mark. Focusing is smooth and pretty light. Aperture ring is a bit stuff. Both seem to loosen up when played with.

This is a little jewel of a lens, but frankly I don't like the pictures it takes on my E-P1. Just too much vignetting, even in 6:6 mode. Think I'll get a Voigtlander 15mm.

If you're looking for a unique "look", it certainly has that. It is nice having a super wide with limited DOF for some situations and I doubt another 12mm lens this fast will ever come out.

$150 is a good price and what I paid (cheapest I see on ebay is $249).

Send me a PM with you email and I'll send pics of the lens and sample pics when I get home.

Thanks
