Hi all;

Getting a head start on Spring cleaning . . . 🙄

On the block will be all of my 'M' related gear. Amongst which is a Leitz 35/2.0 Summicron as seen in the attached pix.

I'm not a Leica-phile so I'm not sure which version this is so it would help to know that.

As I hope you can see, the glass is clean and clear. Mechanically it's fine. The barrel obviously has wear. The hood is the correct one and has brassing and a minor ding. The rear cap in included but not the front. I suspect all of this adds up to an attractive 'user' lens, but I'm not sure how much to ask for it.

Naturally, I'll offer it (and all the rest of the kit) here before posting it anywhere else.

BTW, replies offering to "take that piece of $#!+ off your hands for $50" will be ignored. I may be ignorant, but I ain't stupid. 😀

TIA!/ScottGee1

So it's a v3 -- that helps!

And a good lens indeed. Roland, sounds like you got a very good deal!

Thanks, gents!

Anyone else care to weigh in?

Thanks!/ScottGee1
 
Okay, if not $50, how about $51? Just kidding. I have an M5 in the classifieds right now, and two people have asked me if the lens (a 35/2 Asph. Summicron) is included with the camera!

The glass on your Summicron looks very clean, so as long as the mechanics are also good, make sure you ask for a fair price.

Oh, btw, what else are you selling? I'm in the market for a fast 50.

Sold my 50 'cron last year. 🙁 (Though I'm not sure everyone would consider that to be "fast".)

Thanks for asking!/ScottGee1
