Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:29100862 | Brand: Leica |
Selling a gorgeous condition Leica 50mm F2 Summicron DR with the original goggles/glasses that allow for close up focus, up to about 0.5m.The official name of the lens is:Ernst Leitz GmbH Wetzlar Summicron f = 5cm 1:2 Nr. 1466000
The lens just came back from CLA at DAG. Everything is working perfectly and the lens is in truly gorgeous condition. It's always tough to say with a vintage lens what the exact rating would be, but aside from a small mark on the top of the lens where the g...oggles mount, and some small microscratches/cleaning mark on the front element (super common for Leica lenses of this age) it's as close to new condition as I can imagine a 60 year old lens being.I got the lens as a kit when I bought an M3, and I got it CLA'd right away, thinking I would use it on my M10, but when I got it back, I realized it is one of the few lenses that doesn't mount on modern M cameras. Oh well, my loss is your gain!The front cap is original and fits really well. The focus and aperture rings are super smooth. The goggles fit like a glove. That said, the right, circular lens in the goggles does have a mild separation happening that allows you to see a slight rainbow effect, but it doesn't affect anything in operation. I've focused up close on my squirmy kid while he was backlit, so I can attest that it doesn't negatively affect the focus.The only item not original is the rear cap, which is a Zeiss ZM lens cap. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Knowing how beautiful this sample is actually makes me excited to sell it so someone can enjoy it on their Leica.
