$350 for an early one up to $600 for a late MM version.
The Best 180-200mm I ever tried. I have an MMG for sale if you are serious about getting the rarest one send a PM.
MM is only important for Contax Multi-Mode film cameras. Although one other difference in the later MM versions is a even (not ninja star) Aperture blade system for better OOF highlights in strong conditions.
I don't think there is much difference in softer light from the ninja star YMMV. _________________ Moderator |

The AE version has a tapered barrel, whereas the MM version has an abrupt enlargement at some point.
Also, the MM version (like all MM lenses), has the smaller aperture number printed in green, while the AE version (like all AE lenses) has the smaller aperture number in white like the other numbers.

its not a problem of translation but a problem of imagination for me. can you show me one of this versions (AE or MM) and mark the part where it differs? would be NICE _________________ EOS 5D, EOS 30

This is the AE version:
as you can see, between the aperture numbers and the grip, there is a tapered connection.
This is the MM version:
note that the aperture numbers and the grip have the same diameter, and that the diameter gets suddenly bigger towards the end.
Note also the smaller aperture number printed in green.

Well, I have paid my Sonnar more than I did pay for the Apo-Telyt-R, but I have been very lucky with the Apo.
Normally, the Apo-Telyt-R should cost from 200 to 300 Euros more than the Sonnar. But the prices are not stable like for new equipment, there can be lots of variation from copy to copy, one has to stay always with the eyes open and jump on a bargain as soon as it appears.

I don't remember precisely how much I paid for the Sonnar, I think it was around 400 Euros.
For the Apo-Telyt-R I have paid 300 Euros, last week.

Excellent price !
Grab it (if the lens is in good condition, I have not read the advert)
Between f/2.8 and f/3.5 there is half stop difference, not one.

In the practical use, it's meaningless, also because the Apo-Telyt is perfect wide open, see photo of Marco Cavina's wife in this article:
http://www.luciolepri.it/lc2/marcocavina/articoli_fotografici/Leitz_Apo-Telyt_180mm_glass/00_pag.htm
Besides, the lens is 3.4 not 3.5, my mistake.

my car is waiting for a set of new tires and a new clutch. and i think it will take at least a half year to find a moment, where 400 € lay around and wait to be spend for a lens .
thats the reason why i started using mf-lenses!
but as far as i can see, there ist no reason for my work progress to return to af lenses. and so i am about to plan spending more money in better mf-lenses. you know? _________________ EOS 5D, EOS 30

Seller has excellent history. No negative also in the past. If I didn't have it already I would go for it. _________________ Orio, Administrator
