Item History & Price
Pentacon auto 50/1.8 50mm MC German standard prime lens Praktica M42 CLA works
Famous standard lens originally designed for Praktica cameras but you can use it with other M42x1 cameras as well. Manufactured by VEB Pentacon, Germany probably in 70-ties. Description: Ser. No. 5785638. Stopping limits are 1.8-16. It focuses from 0.33m to infinity. Lens is multi coated.
Cosmetically is this lens MINT-. Minor wear both on focusing ring. Rest of ...barrel almost without wear. Very n ice and fresh looking.
With caps but without case.
Glass on lens is clean, no fungus, no scratches (nearfly, from rear end I see 1 tiny). Very good glass. Micro bubbles are in old quality optical glass always present. Focusing and stopping is smooth, I lubricated the lens recently. Controlled infinity focus on collimator. We are repairing, overhauling, cleaning and lubricating every camera, lens, binocular, microscope ... to restore its original functionality as much as possible. However we are not disassembling it completely and clean every part in ultrasonic cleaner separately if not necessary. If I am not satisfied how something works - considering item age and construction - I will write about it in description. You do not need ask me if it works, we did everything possible to repair it, and I believe for some groups is our repair workshop between the most qualifying in world. Get it working better can only better repairman (or with better replacement part source). However I am not manufacturing them, therefore always read carefully my description about glass, etc. Btw, if you need repair some older mechanical camera, lens, accessory, binocular or microscope you can always ask me.Air mail shipping and handling charge is WORLDWIDE $16 REGISTERED (letter), it has automatic insurance coverage up to $50 (Euro) per packet, if higher insurance is required than cheapest available shipping option (worldwide same) is $30 INSURED PACKET (wait for my invoice if you want use it). They do exist express options (EMS and business packet) to most countries of world however cost are different (expensive) you need ask about them separately.
If post will confirm that insured packet was lost or damaged (you need claim by delivery) I will replace it - when impossible refund the full amount. I need wait for post confirmation, too many crooks lately trying to have both item and money.
It is included in it incombinable $5 packing and handling charge that remains by combined shipping. Rest of charge I will combine and calculate just true shipping charge for packet to your country if you will purchase more items.
I have declared up to 10 days handling time for my items. I need this time to control and last time test every item, for items shipped out of European union put it in custom office that needs 2-3 days prepare documents and transfer packet to post office. Expected postal delivery time is usually up to 2 weeks but delays simple happens, for example in USA packet often need more days for security control in custom office. For these reasons I choose to check ebay shipping option "economy shipping ... 11-20 business days", I hope that you will get as quick as possible (in most cases you can calculate get packet 1.5-2 weeks after payment date if you are in European union, 2-3 weeks for rest of world) but really I can not affect work of custom and post offices worldwide anyway and delays can happen. Online trackable it is in some countries, for example USA, China, Japan. Contact me before making any Ebay or Paypal claim, PLEASE!
Combined shipping saves often costs per item considerably but not in all situations, ask about exact items. By very cheap item is possible ship uninsured - this will cost $3 less, but I will do it only if you will declare that you will not make any claim if packet will be lost by transport.Look at my other auctions for more camera items!
Greetings from Slovakia and happy bidding!
Sorry, usually I can't reply questions during Friday-Sunday. If is some difference between description and picture usually is mistake in description, by cameras, lenses, prisms, etc, picture always show actual item (some small items like extension tubes, flash shoes, etc can be exception). I will correct all links until Tuesday.
