For Sale Nikon N80 and Voigtlander 40mm SLII Aspheric lens

[peterlat]

Up for sale is a Nikon N80 body fitted with the latest edition 40mm F2 Voigtlander Ultron Aspheric lens. Both the camera and lens are in first-rate condition, mechanically, optically and cosmetically. The body comes with original box and manual (sorry, no strap or body cap); the lens includes its original box, manual, shade, close-up attachment and front cap (sorry no rear cap). This has been a perfect lightweight street kit: the image quality of the lens is extraordinary, and the N80 is the perfect body for it. (I wear glasses, and the adjustable diopter on the N80 is a godsend.) I did a fair amount of research before buying, and was particularly impressed by a) Ken Rockwell's review of the Nikon and b) my experience with other Voigtlander lenses. I'm only selling because I just acquired a Hasselblad Xpan, and the 45mm Xpan lens is so close in focal length to the Ultron that it makes no sense to keep both. For those in the upper 48, $15 will cover shipping; I'll eat the PayPal fee. I've got good feedback on photo.net, the big auction site (peterlat) and APUG.

How much $$?

 

[peterlat]

Oops--leave it to me to forget to list the price: $400. Sorry about that.

UPDATE: I'll pay shipping to the lower 48. At this price, it's the equivalent of getting a free N80 body.

Taking offers before it goes on the dreaded auction site this weekend. . .

 

[peterlat]

Anyone interested in the body or lens separately? I can offer the lens for $320, and the N80 for $50.

I take it that they were sold...?

 

[peterlat]

Yes, sorry for not having noted that.
