For Sale FS: Mamiya 645 80mm f/2.8 Lenses (x3)

[Fixcinater]

I have three of these available, all have some issues as I will outline below. Best offers are considered, I need to clear some room for the new year ahead.

Lens #1 is a C model lens, serial 36816. Has fungus is front group, some cleaning marks on front element and a couple spots of coating wear. Couple of small dings and heavy cosmetic wear to the filter ring. Focus is somewhat coarse/rough/too viscous but is the same throughout the travel. Rear element has some internal fungus on edge and there are some cotton wisps on the next element further in from previous owner cleaning. I have not opened this up and have too many projects to get it cleaned up but if it doesn't sell, I can clean it out. Aperture ring is smooth and aperture works perfectly so may be a good candidate to pull parts from?

Last photo is a sample taken with this lens, handheld in front of my DSLR camera at full aperture.
$17 plus shipping.

Again, offers are entertained.

Lens #2 is a C model lens, serial 150945. Front element has fungus around periphery, no scratches or wear to front surface. Also has some cotton wisps from previous owner cleaning inside near aperture. Has very minor ding/wear to filter ring but filters still thread in. Focus ring is smooth. Rear elements look fine, I see no fungus or haze or issues behind the aperture. This one has less wear overall to the barrel and glass is in better shape than #1. Aperture works perfectly, could be fine shooter as-is or after fungus removal if that would give you piece of mind. Has already baked in the California sun for a couple of days so fungus should not grow any further unless put back into a moist dark storage situation. There is a number engraved on the aperture ring as shown.

Last image is a sample, shot in same setup as previous sample. Better contrast as you can tell, and from close inspection, slightly better sharpness.

$24 plus shipping.

Lens #3 is an N type lens, so later coatings and build. Best cosmetic condition out of the group, serial number 134005.

Main flaw that I can find is a ding out of the aperture ring directly below the serial number engraving boss. Focus is rough and there looks to be some wear from grit that got inside the focusing ring and the forward lens barrel but it works OK and grit seems to be gone. Glass is good to very good. Aperture is inop. There is some play in the focus ring, almost like something is loose but I'm not sure.

Last shot is a sample from this lens hand-held in front of my DSLR, shows best contrast and resolution out of the group. Could be a great tilt/shift candidate for your 35mm camera.

$24 plus shipping.
