AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
The Carl Zeiss Jena lenses are legendary. This lens is nowadays widely used for architectural photography because it has little to no distortion. It is hard to find an alternative, even when compared with the much more expensive Carl Zeiss Distagon lenses.
The Flektogon lens was produced in East Germany in 1963. It consists of 10 elements in 6 groups, has a filter size of 77mm, weighs 320 grams, and has a close focus of 16cm.
It has an Exa or Exakta mount and can be used on various other camera systems through adapters (not included).
The offered lens is sublime in use.
The exterior condition is exceptionally good to very good with no significant signs of use. See photos.
Comes with two lens caps.
In other words... this is a very particularly beautiful lens that can still shoot many wonderfully beautiful images.
It will be packed securely and shipped with a Track & Trace number and insurance.
P.S.: I have set a reasonable minimum price of €149 for this very beautiful lens.
Whoever bids €149 has a very high chance of winning this lens.
Bid with confidence and win a fantastic lens for nature photography, buildings and architecture, or as an addition to your camera and lens collection.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
I always ship my goods with Track & Trace number and insurance, and this is because of potential damage and theft.
This shipping cost is higher (but safer) and is mandatory for us (sellers) to use by Catawiki.
I use Catawiki’s "Smart Shipping" tool. It was created after negotiations with several carriers and mail-order companies to obtain better and cheaper shipping costs.
Everything happens automatically via Catawiki and I only receive a digital shipping label that I must print and affix to the package.
I also use a one-time fee of €10, which is included in the shipping costs.
Included are: the time I spend packing, the packing box, the time I spend driving to and from the post office, and a contribution to fuel since my car doesn’t run on water.
If you cannot agree to this, please do not place any bids.
Thank you in advance.
