From the estate of a local collector, a Steinheil Munchen Cassar 1.3.8 f=105mm VL lens, Nr. 892162, All chrome, f-stops from f/3.8 to f/22. According to Captain Jack's Steinheil Exacta lens page (which I always trust because one of my favorite dogs is named "Jack",) the lens is "infrequently encountered", which means that I can claim it to be RARE! and charge obscene amounts for it. Oh, wait: it's in an Exacta mount. Scratch the "obscene amounts" thing: I'll be lucky to unload this unloved orphan... Cap'n Jack says that the lens unscrews from the focusing mount so it can be used with a bellows. I suppose that would be for macro work, eh?
Well, it's shiny, anyway. The glass is coated and dusty but I don't see any scratches. The chrome body is pretty but there is a very small mark on the chrome, and some dirt on the mount. I'm guessing that it was used at some point but not abused.
So, Exacta fans: how about $20 plus shipping for this lovely. I take Paypal and USPS Money Orders (United States Postal Service ONLY). Thanks for looking!
