Will a 90/4 Elmar C work on My R-D1?

[anaanda]

Thanks for your answers..
and how much should I pay for a good one..?

It works on the R-D1 even though there is no frameline for 90mm. The rangefinder is accurately enough for an F4 lens, and my Canon 105 f3.4 also works without any problem even at the closest range.

I bought mine 6-7 years ago for approx US$400. The glass was clean and it also came with the hood and caps.

Keep a close eye open, and there are bargains out there. I got a mint example with caps and the little leather case from Germany for 194 Euros. Terrific little lens.

I must have overpaid for my elmar-c. There is a mint one with box listed on the Hong Kong Leica Fan Club for HK$2100 (US$270):bang:
