Sold 12" f/6.3 Kodak Commercial Ektar w/box

[mattk]

Very, very nice lens. Shutter functions in all settings. Times are a bit slow (listed below). Shutter blades are very clean as is the shutter itself. Glass is nearly a 10/10. A few tiny cleaning whisps (barely visible) on the rear of the front lens. One minute speck on the front of the lens--again you need a lupe and some bright light to make it out. I rate this lens a 9/10. Original Kodak case and mounting included. 1sec=1.33, 2=.75, 5=.35, 10=.2, 25=.06, 50=.35, 100=.029, 150=.0195
I have two and need to thin out the closet.
Shipping is actual cost.

Asking $400 with the case.

Matt

The small speck in the photo with the shutter open is a small bubble in the glass-not a blemish.

A beautiful lens and the case could be turned into a pinhole camera ;-)

I bought the 10" Commercial Ektar (also with case) once, but haven't got a LF camera for it (yet).
It's a lens Ansel Adams used also. See: http://thetoadmen.blogspot.nl/2013/02/interesting-film-about-ansel-adams-from.html
