Advertisement Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 Hi dkCambridgeshire, Take a look here 40mm f2.8 Elmarit C .... I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
wizard Posted June 17, 2008 Share #2 Posted June 17, 2008 That is a collectors only item. Optical performance is definitely below the Summicron 40mm, so I have no burning desire for this lens ... Andy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
luigi bertolotti Posted June 17, 2008 Share #3 Posted June 17, 2008 Only a collector item... tasty, for the EXACT number of lenses of this kind is unknown (400?), and interesting for it's probably the only Leitz lens with some East-Europe flavor (the mount was made in Romania, with a significant design flaw, so it was cancelled and officially never sold to public). Rare, but in the last 12 months I'd say that I saw at least 4 or 5 for sale, ranging in the 1200 Euros or some more: don't worth for use, but not exaggerate as collectible.
