Well, this one is an impulse buy on my part. This is in a like new condition, with no flaw on the body, glass or anything for that matter. I have the original box for the lens and the hood. Even all the paperwork is still there.

This is the SC version. The new price is $460+shipping (/w hood).

I'll ask for $400 shipped and paypalled.

Pardon my asking - is this lens converted to Pentax K-mount?

It's a Leica M-mount lens, which (unfortunately) can't be adapted for Pentax because the distance between the mount and the film/sensor plane is so much smaller on Leica than on Pentax.

This lens can be used on any Leica M-mount camera, or can be used with an adapter on micro four-thirds bodies like the Panasonic G1/GH1/GF1 or the Olympus E-P1.

It's a beautiful, tiny lens, with really nice focusing action. I've tried one on an E-P1 and it's really sharp and fun to use! The single coated version apparently gives more shadow detail, so should be better for black and white film/conversion.

By the way, aegisphan, are you using your adapted A 50 1.2 for these pics?

This lens is tiny so I need more reach than the 50. So I used my Sony CZ 135. The 50 is for bigger product.

Thanks, too bad though it cannot be used on Pentax...

EBL is kind of short on the R3A. Ensure you can focus good using a fast wide with the R3A's base line.
