First thing that comes to mind when you try to lift this lens is 'don't blow an o-ring"..
What we have here is possibly the heaviest 85mm 1.5 lens made. I cannot imagine this could be made any heavier unless they replaced a couple of the elements with lead ingots.
This is a preset lens, which means no auto aperture stop down. You preset the aperture ring to your intended aperture, focus wide open, then manually close down until you hit the preset to take the pic.
Cutting edge tech if this was 100 years ago...
So anyway, I bought this lens because I must have lost a bet, was impressed by swirly pics of bokeh n stuff, used it maybe twice, then let it act like ballast in the trunk of my Oldsmobile for when I drove on sketchy roads.
Pretty much like new condition, comes with its pouch and box.
$300 shipped/pp
The two times I used it (w Nikon Z7)
