This one pains me: I think it's one of the sharpest, most versatile lenses available for LF.
Covers 8x10 without movements. On 4x5 it might be a contender for best all-around lens, and it's a nice wide angle on 5x7.


Glass is in very good shape, some very very tiny coating marks, cleaning marks, mostly near the edges of the glass.
Shutter is snappy, I had it serviced not long after buying the lens about two years ago. Aperture blades are oil-free.
Barrel shows paint loss on the rear element.


Includes Rodenstock caps and a real Linhof lens board.


$475 USD includes shipping to Canada/USA, and includes Paypal fees.
$450 USD plus shipping to any overseas locations.


Don't need the Linhof board? Take $20 off.


Thank you.

I'm tempted to sell my 110mm SSXL and buy this. I could use the funds.
 
I'm tempted but I have a Nikkor 150 SW.... Temptations temptations

Hey all,
Ari is a top-tier fellow here on the analog-photography forums . Every deal he and I have done together(both buying and selling from each side)over the past few years has gone smooth as silk.
So here's a free 'bump' for a nice fellow, and his very nice lens
 
I can't... I just can't right now.

Thank you very much, Daniel; I can easily say the same for you.

I'm still not 100% sure about selling this lens, I really do like it.

It's still for sale, for the moment, but I might pull the plug on the sale soon.

I have too many 8x10 lenses in the 300mm range, and maybe those should go first.

Thank you
 
Are you looking for any trades?
 
Hey, Ari. We all change our minds from time-to-time. There are a couple a recent sales I wish I could have avoided but I was in dire need of the funds. I'll never find those lenses again in that condition or for anywhere near the prices they went for but at least they went to a good home.
