FS: Coastal Optics 60mm UV-VIS-IR APO Macro lens for Nikon
This patented lens is unique, a true APO (apochromatic) lens. This lens has been little used (which is why I am selling it) and then used only in a studio. It sells new for $4950, and this lens is essentially brand new. It has the original box, instructions, and the certificate issued to my company by Jenoptics. Those of you who know about this legendary lens, already know its qualities.
Lens expert Lloyd Chambers writes:
"Its performance is unique, offering parfocal and true apochromatic performance from approximately 315nm (ultraviolet) to 1100nm (infrared), with transmission from 290 to 1500nm. There is no other lens available today that can offer that sort of performance… Even the legendary Hasselblad 250 SuperAchromat doesn’t claim that wide an apochromatic band. The Coastal Optics lens stands head and shoulders above anything offered to the public."
