Up for sale next is an outstanding example of this Macro lens. Both caps and the retaining ring are included. The lens has a Copal 0 shutter.

I prefer payment by PayPal and US shipping. I am asking $700 plus actual shipping. This is an excellent deal for a lens of this caliber and condition.

Shutter tested:
1-.91
2-1/2
4-1/4
8-1/8
15-1/15
30-1/36
60-1/72
125-1/135
250-1/250
500-1/666

"The Schneider 120mm f/5.6 Makro-Symmar HM Lens is a large format lens specifically designed for macro use, primarily for the 4x5 and 5x7 formats. It can also be used on 6x9 and 8x10 cameras at 2:1 magnification. The Makro-Symmar HM, within its recommended 1:4 to 4:1 reproduction ratio range, produces images with superior resolution, contrast, and color correction. The difference versus a common-use large format lens is stunning. It has an apochromatic design and incorporates costly ULD (Ultra-Low Dispersion) glass elements for the highest possible quality. The Makro-Symmar HM is meant to be used at larger apertures to limit the degradation of image quality caused by diffraction."

Would you potentially trade this for a 180mm Sironar-S red line (best) Rodenstock?

Sorry, I’m just looking to sell. Feel free to make me a resonable (non-trade) offer.
