TTArtisan 28mm F5.6 Lens for Leica M-mount, Original Boxing

Description: TTArtisan 28mm F5.6 Manual Lens, Leica M-mount For sale in the 48 US States ONLY! This auction includes the following used equipment: – Exterior Box – excellent condition, sealing tape cut (from my opening the box) – Lens Box – fine condition – Lens – fine condition – Rear Cap – fine condition – Front Cap – fine condition – Lens Hood – lots of brass showing Missing: Info sheet (if I find it I will send it along to the Buyer) ********** Please read the whole description and conditions below! In this auction I am selling my TTArtisan 28mm F5.6 lens in Leica M-Mount. I used it on my M10, M10-R and my M11 (and M4 film camera). The lens operates as new with good sharpness on all f-stops but is a little soft wide-open – just as the Leica original is. SEE the sample photo I have included. Condition: Optics: the glass is clean and clear with No haze, No fungus, No scratches, No internal dust. Mechanics: This all-brass lens operates perfectly with flawless mechanics – EXCEPT: the focus lock sometimes fails to lock into place without a strong nudge. Cosmetics: Excellent condition cosmetically (rating a 9), showing little wear. – EXCEPT: the hood – lots of brass showing (see image) from accidentally rubbing on something when it fell out of the case on a shoot. NOTE: I never used the hood as it is large and blocks the viewfinder. The front of the lens is really far recessed. I don’t know anyone who uses the hood on this or the Leica version! Look at the posted images. Everything you are buying is shown in the photographs – please look at them as they are an important part of the description for this auction. The pictures are of the actual items I am selling. My items are used, not new, so I try to describe them to the best of my ability. I never misrepresent anything intentionally but can make mistakes. If anything, I usually grade objects lower than they deserve to avoid disappointing you, the buyer. Email me with questions BEFORE bidding! I try to answer all questions quickly but when I travel in out-of-the-way places there are times when I cannot get to my emails every day. ******* Features: This small and exquisite 28mm f5.6 lens is quite similar to the Leica offering except is sells for around $300 instead of around $2600. All components – the lens, lens hood, front cap and rear cap are made of brass. There is no plastic on this lens. All markings are engraved so will always be there, even with the wear and tear of time. I would guess that most who use this lens do so with a style similar to a Point & Shoot; it’s great depth-of-field makes this possible. There is no M-Mount lens you can use faster. Similar to the Leica original, there is a lock on the focus lever. This assists in locking this tiny lens’s bayonet mount into place on the camera body, as well as removing the lens from the camera. The focus lock on this lens does not always lock at infinity (but I don’t push it hard into place, maybe that’s why?) I did not bother exchanging the lens as I don’t always want to use the lock mechanism when shooting. I do use it to mount & un-mount the lens. Retail Price: US$328 Focal length: 28mm Maximum aperture: F5.6 Minimum aperture: F22 Closest focusing distance: 1m Frame: Full Frame Diaphragm Blades: 6pcs Filter size: 37mm Optical Design: 7 Elements in 4 Groups Angle of view: 72° Focus method: Manual Weight: circa 151 grams Size: less than 2 cm WITH front cap (but NOT with the classic rectangular hood)! ********** Your bid means you have agreed to the following: I am offering these items for sale/delivery in the continental USA and Canada only, WITH FREE USPS SHIPPING & INSURANCE (for your purchased value.)
