Putting in a holiday bump! Lowered the price for anyone interested in a really rare piece of glass.

I actually sent them to Dave back in March. He confirmed receiving them and said he'd be in touch in a few days. I haven't been able to get a hold of him neither via email or phone for months. Anyone have any idea of he's doing okay? Or is he just a very bad responder and I'll hear from him when...

Up for sale is an extremely rare and valuable 500mm lens. It took me forever to find one of these and lo and behold, I don't like the focal length after shooting numerous rolls with it. What you see is what you get. I used a generic lens bracket to support it (impossible to shoot without one)...

Hello forum! Always gotten some great advice here. Bought a GX680 body for parts (got a lens with it) as part of the deal. It's a Fuji GX MD 125mm lens. The inside looks very dusty and hazy. This camera was clearly not stored well. I'd like to use the lens, but I think it needs to be opened and...

Wanted to bump this up and see if anyone has any reputable lens CLA/repair companies or people. I found Midwest Photo Repair as highly rated, but apparently they closed last month. Anyone?

Looks like a great kit! I have a IID myself, so I don't need a full kit, but if you're willing to part out the left hand grip or the AE finder, I'd be interested in those. I'm slowly trying to find pieces I need to complete my own kit.

I happened to stumble upon this in my new. I'm trying to eventually buy a GX617, so have all kinds of shopping alerts set up. It looks like the eBay gods may have answered your prayers. Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/156034698864

How much bellows would I need for a 700mm or 800mm or 1000mm? Is there a way to determine. I can also add 80mm extension rails to my body to make more room as well.

Sold to cdowell. I'll figure out how to do feedback.

Hello al! Selling a barely used Fuji X100F. Purchased when it came out, barely used, stored in a camera cabinet since. The camera counter says "1500 shots." Looking for $1100 (OBO). User pays for shipping with insurance and signature confirmation to ensure delivery. I'm in Chicago if anyone...

No need for a lens that large. I can figure out a lovely composition with something smaller. I'm going to be in a highly urban area and can grab some skyscraper tops. Is there perhaps something out there in the ~1000mm range in LF? I don't know if there's a reflex lens in the LF world similar to...

Appreciate the input, but unfortunately a telescope or smaller format isn't something I can do. Aiming to work with the equipment that I have and not outlay for a whole new setup when I have a perfectly good one with an interesting option. Are there any decent sized large format lenses that...

Hello all! These forums have been such a treasure trove of knowledge and I'm hoping to tap into it again. I have a Fuji GX680 and the longest lens I can find is a 300mm, equivalent to about a 150mm on 35mm. There's a 500mm, but apparently, you have a greater chance of hitting the lottery (unless...

Hello all! Looking for a Mamiya Sekor Z 500mm. Prefer an APO f/6, but willing to entertain a non-APO f/8. Prefer a kit including the lens bracket/support arm, but negotiable. Anyone have one they are looking to get rid of?
