Carl Zeiss Jena el. MC Sonnar 200/2.8 M42



included: lens, original lens-hood, front cap, rear cap

optics: no fungus, no haze, no scratches, no cleaning marks, only some dust particles
mechanics: focusing is really smooth, aperture works fine (7 blades), no oil
cosmetics: good condition, a few dings on paint

The lens show a bit more CA than I'd expected, but this is the only copy of this lens I ever had in my hands, so I can't say if it's normal for this lens or if is it caused by copy variation. That's why the price is set lower.

price: €155 + shipping

I accept PayPal (+3%) or MoneyBookers (+1%)

It is really seducing Razz but I really like my Tele-Tessar 4/200 thanks to its wonderfull color tones and 3D feeling and this makes me think if I really need this Smile
Is the sample wide open?

Can I get a wide open sample then Smile Indoor with or without flash is OK, I want to see the sharpness and bokeh structure.
