Hello! I am selling both my Zeiss 50mm lenses

The first is the venerable 50mm f2 Planar. In chrome. Like new with box. No hood. With rear cap. Has filter on front element as I can not find the lens cap and filter will be included with sale. Will ship US Priority mail in US. Paypal. $575 plus $10 Shipping

Also the Zeiss 50mm f1.5 ZM Sonnar in chrome. Like new. With box and caps.
$890 plus $10 shipping. This example is the standard calibration for focus at f 2.8 but I can hit focus at 1.5 with no problems (When doing portraits wide open, I focus on the eye and then shift my weight forward a fraction of an inch on my front foot which hits it every time for head and shoulder portraits). You can also have Zeiss calibrate focus for wide open as well, although I never saw the need. This is an AMAZING black and white lens.

Both these lenses are stellar copies. Sharp wide open. Classic Zeiss greatness.

I would prefer selling the Planar and keeping the Sonnar for BW work. I have several classic 50s and so the Planar does double duty, although as we all know, the Planar is a top of the line 50 by itself.

I am looking for a V3 model of the Leica 50mm Summicron (I have a later model with the built in hood (V5) but I'd like a V3 for the contrast and artsy look, in case anyone wants to trade. As long as glass is good, aesthetics not important. Thank! -Rob
