I am selling my Leica R prime lens set. These lenses are are absolutely beautiful lenses, are fantastic working order, have been recently serviced and de-clicked (except for the 28mm). The great thing about them is that they are made for Full Frame so they will cover the Dragon sensor well.

Serious offers will be considered by emailing me at mike@the5stonesgroup.com. I can also send photos of the lenses as well.

Price= $10K

The set includes:

19mm f/2.8 Elmarit-R
SN#: 3503765

28mm f/2.8 Elmarit- R
Leitz Wetzlar

Hey Mike, looks like a good set for Dragon. FF is great, what about breathing, de-centering? Looks like you had some work on them to make them useable as cinema lenses?
Who de-clicked the lenses and did they correct any of the breathing or off centering on focus pull?

Do you have any work you could share with us with these lenses?

Thanks.

I'm not sure if any tech can fix "breathing" issues on a lens, as those are often inherent in the lens design itself. The "de-centering" I'm not sure about.

You can look at the Portland test to see how Leica R's breathe...which if I recall...wasn't that bad at all (but certainly a bit more than say Cooke primes).
 
:)

New Cookes are the best breather of all lenses (IMO)
None of any other lens ever made can achieve, nor it's focus mechanics, nor it's way of manage the breathing. (I don't know what the f/*&%$ I'm thinking in trying to sell my set)
