Manufactured: 1977
Serial #13213814

Full specs here: https://www.schneideroptics.com/inf...e_format_lenses/tele-xenar/data/5,5-360mm.htm
Glass is perfect, no scratches, chips, fungus, Schneideritis, or other marks. Cosmetically, there are a couple of very minor external signs of wear. No dings or dents in filter threads. Shutter is snappy and smooth, in good working condition. Top speed is a little slow, closer to 1/80 than 1/125, other speeds within spec.
Some telephoto lenses are reputed to deliver less-than-crisp pictures, but this example produces sharp, clean images. Lens is single-coated, as were all the Tele-Xenars of this vintage. I've owned this lens for a dozen years, but I just don't use it, so it's time to let it go.
Sale includes front and rear lens caps, retaining ring.
Price: $425 shipped. Sales and shipping to continental USA and Canada only. PayPal preferred.
