Rare and Lovely Leica M Lenses For Sale

[akaru]

These are the few I’ve kept for myself, and due to the ICs, shot often on an X2D with little to no cropping. Alas, an Alpa habit is forcing me to sell to cover.

Well worn patina $2k
+++SOLD+++



APO-SUMMICRON 50mm f/2 ASPH (11141)

If you know, you know. Original owner. Mint in original box $6k
+++SOLD+++


“Leitz Wetzlar” SUMMILUX 35mm f/1.4 (11700)

This is a special edition in monochrome finish, of which only 500 were produced. I am the original owner. Like new in original box of course. $8k ++++Taking offers++++



Super-ELMAR 21mm f/3.4 ASPH (11145)

I can so appreciate this. I sold all my Leica gear to get into digital medium format with a P1 back and some ALPA gear too!

Well, what’s next, Jeff? Can I skip the line?

Well, what’s next, Jeff? Can I skip the line?

I have been thinking about selling off my P1 lenses.

I meant it as what’s next for you to get into. If you sold Leica for Alpa, what’s the end game? View camera?

Nope, used to shoot 4x5 BW for years. Just not shooting much anymore. End game was the achromatic db for me.

 

[akaru]

I feel like 11x14 would be my end game. And probably an M monochrom again. Because as soon as I could afford ultra large format, my back wouldn’t allow it.

 

[akaru]

90 and two 21’s are pending.

I’ll be abroad, so will have to pause any sales starting tomorrow until around February, so if any of you were planning a Xmas gift, get in now.

 

[akaru]

50 and 35 still available. All others old. Will probably keep the 35

 

[akaru]

50 is sold. Last remaining lens is the Leitz Wetzlar 35 Summilux, just 1 of 500. I’ll take reasonable offers or may just keep it.
