1. Leica Summicron 35mm f/2 V4 ("King of Bokeh") Made in Canada lens
Selling my Leica Summicron 35mm f/2 Version 4 (colloquially known as the "King of Bokeh" version), Made in Canada. The lens was CLA'd by Youxin Ye, who just lubed the focusing helicoid as there weren't any other issues present. The focus is incredibly smooth, the glass is clean and clear with just some minor dust inside, but no haze, separation, fungus or scratches. The aperture ring is not as smooth as other Leica lenses I've used though this is typical of this version of the lens, but it operates fine in use. There is a slight amount of wear on the aperture blades, and the barrel has some wear as you can see in the images. The lens comes with an aftermarket replica of the vented metal 12504 hood and a hood cap.
PRICE: $2295, plus PayPal fee and shipping
2. Leica Summicron 90mm f/2 Pre-ASPH E55 lens
Selling my Leica Summicron 90mm f/2 lens. This is the E55 version, immediately prior to the ASPH version of the 90mm Summicron (and which some prefer for its more organic and less clinical rendition). The lens is in near mint condition, with clear glass free of haze, separation, fungus or scratches, and a minor amount of dust. The focus is smooth and nicely damped, and the aperture ring turns smoothly and clicks at each detente. The aperture blades are clean and free of excess oil. The barrel is clean and free of any nicks, scratches or blemishes, and the hood pulls out smoothly. The lens comes with front and rear caps, and the original box.
PRICE: $1095, plus PayPal fee and shipping
Located in NYC. Continental US preferred.
