This lens came on an old Linhof Press camera I bought and I know I will not use it as I am continuing to pursue soft focus photographs and this is just too sharp. This is a coated lens and has cleaning wisps on the front element, the rear element looks fine and maybe just a hint of haze that I have not attempted to clean. No fungus or separation. Shutter fires on all speeds including T and B and from the few photographs I have taken speeds are close and maybe 1/2 stop slow. Aperture and shutter blades open and close smoothly and are oil free. Comes with the retaining ring and an HR solenoid. I do not know if flash synch works as I have no way of checking. This lens has a good reputation for 4 X 5 format and the bokeh wide open is classed as good.
$99.00US including shipping to Canada and continental USA
