Want to Buy WTB: Fujinon/Nikkor W 125/135mm f/5.6 lens

[j6708]

Finally getting into 4x5 so I'm looking for my first lens. I've narrowed it down to the 125mm or 135mm focal length to start. Browsing eBay it looks like the going rate is around $250 for these so I'd like to stay around that. Fujinon or Nikkor preferred with copal shutter. I could be open to other brands, just not too familiar.

I have both.
I’ll let you have the 135mm Fujinon-W if you like.
$250 is fine

Thanks BradS. Would you be able to send me some pictures?

This looks good. Thanks. I’m assuming no issues with the lens, yeah? (Separation , fungus, etc..). Would you be willing to throw in a lens board?

 

[BradS]

No issues at all. The lens and shutter are both is excellent cosmetic and operational condition.

I’d be happy to include a lens board if I have what you need. Which lens board type?

Ok great! I have the intrepid 4x5 so it appears to take the linhof/technica style boards. I believe Wista is also compatible. Are you ok with PayPal goods and services?

I'm enjoying this thread, even if I do feel like I am involved in covert surveillance.
