[edited to change subject from FA to FS. Sorry 'bout that]

Fujifilm Fujinon C 450mm f/12.5 Lens, LNIB f12.5

I bought this new from Badger Graphic several years ago. It has never
been used. I took it out of the box to check its condition. So far as
I can tell, it is perfect.

International shipping varies by destination. Asia and Africa cost the
most. The US is in the middle. The UK and Europe are cheapest. I'm
based in Scotland. Feel free to come by and collect the lens yourself
if you're nearby.

I'll quote from Ken Lee's equipment page

[http://www.kenleegallery.com/html/tech/index.php]

"The Fujinon 450C is a compact lens with long reach and tremendous
coverage. Mounted in a Copal #1 shutter, it weighs only 270 grams,
takes 52 mm filters, yet covers 486 mm, enough for the 11x14
format. It makes a nice portrait lens for 8x10, a long lens for 5x7,
and it's a very long lens for 4x5, but it's smaller and lighter than
most lenses."

Badger Graphic list this lens for US$1570. I'm assuming that its
reasonable to lose 30% for driving it off the lot.

US$1100 + Paypal + Shipping

Thanks

I've had that lens for years and it is one of my favorites. Great price. Someone should snatch that up fast.

bump!

Just a note to say that I'll be in California [near San Jose] for work next week. A US buyer could make a considerable saving on postage if I bring the lens with me. I pack my bags on Sunday night, UK time.
