FS: Leica 90mm f/2 Summicron-R - Near Mint.

[Phil Holland]

I have for sale a near mint condition Leica 90mm Summicron-R. I am the second owner of this lens and the only one to ever shoot any photographs with it. I've shot maybe 100 shots and it's spent the rest of the time in a drawer. First owner was a collector in Italy, I purchased it in 2010 after hunting it down for a couple years.

Serial number is: 3567147 - manufactured in 1992.

Glass is flawless, no dust or bubbles even. Focus rotation is smooth. I'll include the attached Leica R to Canon EF adapter.

I'm looking for $1200 for the lens. I don't know if I've seen one in better condition out there.



Here are some photos:

I'm available to drop it off locally here in LA. If interested or if you have any questions feel free to PM me or email phil@artbyphil.com

I have 3 other lenses in this range and it's just not getting any use with my current kit.



Here's a few shots from when I first purchased the lens:

Super famous lens. A lot of photographers swear by it. I hear about it more than the 80 1.4 actually.

The lens you mostly hear about is the 90mm Summicron ASPH, E 60, which is a different lens optically, and followed this version.

But those are going for 4-5K. This looks like a very clean copy and at a good price. And all later model Leica's are very nice.
