I love this vintage glass, but I can't keep it all! Here is what I have to offer...
SET #1
Zeiss Super Speeds "B-Speeds" T1.4 (25,35,85)
This set has a dual PL/BNCR mount conversion, focus and iris gears, and 80mm fronts. This conversion was done by Sammy's of London many years ago. They were basically the Panavision of Europe before Panavision actually bought them. They did tons of conversions on all types of lenses and labeled them "Samcine". I've been using this set for the last two years on TV shows after finding them collecting dust in a lonely storage room at a rental house. The 25mm has been recently serviced by Duclos Lenses and the set is in great shape. All rings move freely and smoothly and there is no oil on the iris blades. All the glass is clean as whistle with the exception of the 35mm front element. It has some wear to the coating in the corner, but I've never once noticed it. I'd be happy to show the lenses to any interested buyer within the Los Angeles area. Comes in a custom aluminum hard case with Duclos Lenses rear PL lens caps.
SOLD
Set #2
Zeiss Super Speeds "B-Speeds" T1.4 (25,35,85)
This set is identical to the first set, with the exception of condition. All the rings move freely and smoothly and there is no oil on any of the blades. However, the 25mm is missing all its iris blades... I know, crazy right? That's how it was when I found them, so I have no idea where they went. The lens can still be used wide open, but there is no stopping down. It also has cleaning marks on the front element coating. The 35mm has cleaning marks on the rear element. The 85mm is clean as can be and works perfectly. I know this sounds like salesmanship, but these lenses can still be used on tons of projects and will give you that superspeed look for way less than market value. If you can live with the imperfections this is a rad deal for a set of Supers in PL mount. Comes in a custom aluminum hard case with Duclos Lenses rear PL lens caps.
$5,500
Zeiss 16mm, T2.2, PL mount
Another Samcine creation. The glass is crystal clean front and back. The focus ring is smooth and has gears attached. The iris ring has very slight stops on the f-stops and gets a bit sticky from f11- f16. It has the famous T coating from Zeiss and covers 4K. Comes in a custom aluminum hard case with Duclos Lenses rear PL lens cap.
SOLD
Zeiss 12mm, T2.3, PL mount
Sammy's did something special with this one. I believe this is the same Zeiss 16mm lens with an aspheron in front to make it a 12mm. Smooth focus and iris rings and super clean glass. It covers 4K and looks amazing! A fantastic stedicam or landscape lens. There is nothing like this on the market for anywhere near this price. Very unique glass. Comes with a custom 138mm filter holder and a couple of filters you'll probably never use

SOLD
Prices are firm, and I will not break the sets unless they don't sell after a couple months. Also, I do not have the 50mm lenses that are missing from these sets. I am located in Los Angeles and can arrange to show any of the lenses to you in person if you live in the area. I can also ship worldwide, and go through a 3rd party broker if needed (Hopefully some redusers that purchased lenses from me in the past can vouch for me and save us a bunch of hassle and hard earned dollars). Cash preferred. Thanks!
