Purchased direct from Germany. Quality Zeiss Optics. Excellent mechanics that are precise and crisp. This lens was originally built for a 6x6 format, providing huge quality reserve for 35mm format. Beautiful creamy bokeh. Outstanding portraiture lens. This lens is not to be confused with the less expensive imitation "hartblei super rotator" lenses which do not have German-made Zeiss Optics. Purchase date of 2012. It is in MINT condition. Will provide buyer with invoice verifying authenticity. Included is the lens hood, Lens caps, Novoflex QPL-1 1.7" Plate 1/4" Screw and pelican case. (MSRP if purchased in USA today is $4,530.00 which includes a 19% Mwst/VAT but does not include shipping expenses from Germany.) Offering this lens at $1350.00 OBO. Will accept payments via PayPal.
