Continuing my efforts to both lighten my backpack and thin the herd, here's a very nice Schneider 90mm f5.6 Super-Angulon in a Copal 0 shutter. I've never taken it out of the house. Schneider specifies a 105⁰ field of view and a 235mm image circle at f22. This lens will cover 5x7 but you might want to hunt up a Center Filter IV for that.
The lens serial number dates it to roughly mid-1977, but you wouldn't know it at first glance. The non-multicoated glass is clean and clear, and despite their age both the glass and lens cell bodies have negligible signs of use. It takes 82mm filters and comes with two Hoya Skylight filters, one with the glass and one without; the glass-removed ring is used as a spacer to prevent the actual filter glass from touching the lens surface. The shutter operates properly and sounds appropriate on all speeds. The rear cap is a bit loose and sometimes falls off if you hold the lens vertically. This is a substantial lens, weighing 662 grams with caps and retaining ring according to my digital kitchen scale.
My $310 asking price includes my usual careful packaging and insured USPS shipping to your US door. PayPal G&S is fine.
