For Sale SOLD: Meopta Meostigmat 109mm f/1.7 projector lens (GFX mount)

[Ari]

Selling one of my portrait lenses, with much regret. I just have too many.
This is a Meopta Meostigmat 109mm f/1.7, converted by Arseniy Shapurov. On the GFX it becomes an 86mm f/1.3.
Lens is very sharp, very smooth rendition, gorgeous transitions, no swirls. Just clean, smooth OOF areas.
Glass is clean but both elements have minor scratches, which have no effect on image quality.
Includes front and rear caps plus a metal hood.

The GFX adapter unscrews and can be replaced with an M65x1.0 adapter of your choice for about $20 (eBay). You could use it on a variety of cameras.

Hi Ari, great sample photos .
I love meopta optics! Does this lens have aperture control? Is the mount a GFX standard mount, or is it a a more general mount (wouldn't mind throwing this on my Pentax 67.. )

Thank you, RR!
There's no aperture, it's a constant f/1.7. I guess the point of it is to shoot wide open.
As for the mount, yes, the GFX camera attaches to it via an M65x1, this can be unscrewed from the helicoid. I can definitely remove the GFX mount prior to shipping.
To attach to your P67, you'd have to get this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/144440363018?hash=item21a151080a:g:1EcAAOSw4YdY0JlB and you'd be set.
I shoot this lens on Aperture Priority, and the camera compensates with its shutter speeds. Works great, just focus and shoot.
Another great thing is that it can focus down to about 15 inches, so tight head shots are easy.
