Almost never found in any condition so price is ???????
Made by Meyer so it will be good - and no I have never seen one.
My advice - if you can afford it - buy it.

It's being sold for more than 7000$ on eBay at the moment. Definitely a rare lens and collectors item. If you search some Flickr galleries you will find it produces quite and interesting bokeh too.

Price is about 1200$ and condition is perfect, but I don´t know if price on ebay is not just hype.

Buy it and sell it, use the profit to buy other lenses you want.

Hi,
I have one which came to me as part of a set for Reflex Korelle III.
All I can say is that this is the most beautiful lens and the image quality is superb.
Posting photos taken with lens mounted on Nikon FA and 2 portraits on Nikon FA /Portra 400 also one with Nikon d3400.

Plexigringo, more delightful shots. Have you used the Reflex Korelle? Very interesting camera.

No I have not, this camera was left by it's owner, my girlfriends grandpa, with jammed shutter winding knob.

Wow Plexigringo they are indeed fabulous photos. I especially like the last one of the young lady with the amazing hair.

The lens is a keeper for sure 😀📷

The cheapest I can find right now (in China) is roughly 8k. I wouldn't even think twice getting it for 1.2k, but just make sure its proper cause finding spare parts is impossible.
PS: If you don't like it I'd be happy to buy it from you Very Happy

there has been no room for wider DOF, light source was 40W bedside lamp, taken without tripod at 1/30.
