I am unlikely ever to use this lens, so here it is for someone who will use and value it.
Excellent condition. 12 aperture blades.
Glass is clean and has no fungus or any other damage that I can see.
Aperture blades are oil free and move smoothly.
Complete with Konihood and both front and rear Konica caps.
Original leather case.
Two little issues. Front lens cap has a crack in the edge which has been re-glued from the look of it.
The filter ring has a small dent.
Otherwise an outstanding lens for its age.
Reduced to US$75 plus post.

I do recommend Tom as seller I took 35mm Konica F lens from him, delivery was quick, well packed.

Thank you Attila.
There have been 60 or so views - must be too expensive.
Price reduced to US$75 plus postage.
Cheers

Don't be put off everyone here is always looking for a "bargain".

I have decided to keep this lens for the time being.
I have been toying with the idea of modifying an M42-Nikon F mount and attaching it to the rear end of this lens in place of the existing Konica F(?) mount. It will not damage the existing mount as this will be removed and I will use the same mounting screw holes. I might just need to find some longer grub screws.......
Hmmm........

Will work only in limited range let's say from 1m to 1,5m not worth it, you need a mirror less camera and mount it properly there to use it effectively.

Thanks Atilla

This 3.5/135 is a great lens, have one, mine is the next model, but optically identical, just the aperture ring is in a different position.

Out of all the myriad 135s I've used, I put this one in the top 5.

Good luck with the sale!

Look a second hand NEX-3 cost around 100-130 GBP doesn't look much and you can enjoy basically any lens.

Wow great condition, I have most newer versions of the 135mm but this version is really neat Smile Do you have more sample pictures?
Is this the version with the F or AR bayonet?
THx

edit: sample PICTURES... Smile
