Hi everyone,
In the tradition of spring cleaning, my loss is your gain. Up for sale is my cosmetically excellent, clean glass Leica Summicron-C 40 mm f/2 lens in Leica M mount. This lens is fantastic cosmetically. there is a very slight wobble in the focussing knob, that doesn't affect performance, and some moderate stiffness in the focussing wheel. In a sense, the lens should probably go for a CLA at some point, though it performs very well. I purchased the lens for my GXR, and it got some use there, but as the GXR is sold, next up is this lens.

I have the original Leica rubber hood, hood cap, and rear cap. I also have an optional hood. I used a 39 mm filter, which does screw on to the filter thread into a secure position and I will include that as well

These are selling for over $780 at KEH.

My price is $580, shipping included. I don't do Paypal, so a personal or cashier's/bank check will work fine. I will ship within CONUS only. I have perfect buy-sell feedback here and at GetDPI

Pics later this evening...

Thanks for looking!

Okay, Picture time. Cosmetics are really nice for this lens. FYI, I am including 2 different hoods: the original and a aftermarket metal, as well as a b+w UV filter. Optics are pristine. Aperture ring is great. Focus ring is stiff, and focus knob/tab has a slight wobble. Everything works great, just full disclaimer...
