Hi! I'm selling a
Leica Elmarit R 19mm f/2.8, the
second version. This lens is a gem for landscape photographers, the best lens at this focal range up to 16-9.net:

The lens has been
modified to be used on a Canon or Nikon DSLR. I'm currently using it on a Canon 5D II, but you can also mount it on a Nikon using a 40$ conversion kit
The lens is in
great condition. Glasses are clean: no scratch or fungus, and no noticeable dust inside. There are few small scratches on the lens itself, but the lens condition is 9/10
The Elmarit is in Europe (Paris, France), I can send it oversea, but you pay the shipping (around 30€ using regular post or around 100€ using Fedex to the USA and almost anywhere). There can be taxes if you are not in Europe, but honestly I'm used to buy used camera gear from the US and never had to pay them.
I'm selling the lens for
1200€ (around 1550$)Pictures of the lens here:
