Nikkor 5cm f/1.5 on eBay

[maclaine]

I thought some of you folks might be interested in seeing this, if you haven't already. There's an auction for this lens that just went up on eBay with a BIN price of $2,500. It looks like it's in really great shape. Far beyond my budget, of course, but still interesting.

Here's another, more "affordable" one. When it rains, it pours!

Not worth $800 in my opinion......you can find these on Tower cameras if your lucky, they successfully sell in the $700/$800 range, over $1,000 is too much money, the look/bokeh is'nt a big deal, buy a CZJ f1.5/50 Sonnar T and you have the real deal....

Steve,

I mentioned that if you find some Tower cameras sometimes have these lenses on them, I know of at least 3 camera combos, where the dealers bought the camera for dirt money, (less then $300) and then posted the lens for sale online a week later @
$2,500 (THEY STILL HAVE THE LENS AFTER 2 YEARS!) ~ These LTM f1.5's successfully sell in the $700 to $800 range alone. (and that's what I figure they are really worth, for what they sell for.....)

Not a real great performer, it's just a rarity thing, the Nikkor SC f1.4/50 and the Canon f1.5/50 are better shooting lenses, if you can't find the original and equally as rare WW2 issue T CZJ Sonnar f1.5/50.

Keep seraching, the Nikkor f1.5's do turn up.....just have to be quicker then a dealer when buying, that lucky garage sale, is where it's BEST to find one 😀

rotoloni indicates only 800 made , less than 400 in nikon rf mount . a little more than 400 in screw mount . this is the correct lens for an unsynced nikon m . this and the rarity keep the price consistantly high . probably better left for the serious collector .
