I was not familiar with the Computar line and asked a more knowledgable APUG'r for his recommendation on bidding for it. The price I was told was no more than $250.00, boy am I glad he helped me out (thank you sir), I'll just keep hunting considering a decent shutter will run you upwards of $300.00.

Sorry about that. At least I save you some money.

So now you know what my advice is worth! But $200-250 is what I paid for my 210mm and 240mm Computars, both new in barrel and purchased just last year, and I bought a 270mm one earlier this year for about $300.

I guess the word is really out.

Glad to see you post this Sandy, thought I was nuts for thinking the price range was about where you stated....would have even gone $300 and used it without a shutter until I could find one. Day Late, Dollar Short...the next thing I know the Konica GRII 300mm will be going for these prices...and you can't find a shutter for them without modification.

Sandy, if you find any more 270, 210, 300 computars in this price range snatch them up for me, I'd be happy to pay a small finders fee :wink: I actually sent you an email earlier in the year about a 270 on ebay, I couldn't bid on it at the time but that's one I'd love to have. Covers that 8x20 I've had my eye on.

An FYI for all of you Computar fans - There is a 270 Computar in shutter for sale on Ebay right now (item #7540436746). It's attached to a Raja 8x10, but nothing's perfect :tongue:
