This one is a CZJ Biometar 80mm f2.8....it is in excellent condition optically....maybe slight cosmetic blemishes, but nothing I'd be concerned about.

I did notice a teeny teeny bubble in the glass....doesn't affect anything, but it is there and I thought you should know.

I hate to sell this guy, but if you have a passion for the Northern Lights, Polar Bears and Alaska, it turns out that it isn't too healthy on your pocket.

I am asking for $150+shipping+paypal for the lens. It comes with the front lens cap, the original Biometar hood, and the case.

Here is a sample picture shot with this lens on my Pentax 645N:

Perhaps this is a dumb question, but what lens mount does this have?

Oops....sorry...pentacon 6. Can be adapted to pretty much any system out there. I was using it on my Pentax 645 and Nikon DX cameras.

It can cover 6x6.

Btw...I am also open to trading it with a tenba shootout medium backpack in used condition. It will be useful for my trip to the arctic.

Actually a very nice lens. I recently bought a Pentacon 6 with one attached, the aperture was faulty so I sent it off for repair....cost more than your $150.00....damn!

Do you know offhand if the lens might be adaptable to a Bronica ETRS(i)?

Thanks.

I am not sure. The first thing to check is the lens register of the bronica. Is has to be smaller than the pentacon 6 or else you won't get infinity focus.

But the p6 register is huge ( 74.1 mm) that it can be adapted to most cameras, except some like the hassies.
