Excellent condition, clean glass and strong shutter.
Made in 1957 so it has those beautiful Lumenized coatings.

If you think my price is out of line, I'll consider reasonable offers.

It's a great lens Paul, no doubt about it. But I'm no longer shooting film, I've moved to 100% digital, and I don't anticipate going back to film.
There are a lot of great discoveries to be made using either medium, but I've spent more than 20 years using film for work and fun, and I'm happy exploring digital photography now.
So this beauty of a lens is just sitting in a camera bag right now.

I understand. But I still think that's a shame. I could be happy working with this one lens for the rest of my days and never wish for others.
