Meyer Gorlitz Primoplan 5.8cm 58mm F2 First Heavy Version 1940 WW2
SPRING CLEANING....... This Meyer Gorlitz Primoplan 5.8cm F2 is the first heavy brass version of... this lens.  It was made in 1940 which makes it a rare and desirable World War II made German lens.   This lens is beautiful and shows minimal signs of use (see images). The elements look good but I’ve not had this lens cleaned, so I would advise to do so if it will become a daily shooter. Aperture and focus work as they should with a Meter focus scale - focus is perfect and feels good.  This lens should have originally been uncoated but this example has a nice blue tint coating.  I bought this lens from Netherlands and believe it was coated after the war by Oude Delft.  ‘Old Delft’ was founded in 1939 and named after a town in the Netherlands. They had an after market service where they would coat early non-coated lenses.  The founder, Oscar van Leer, and his partner Prof. Brouwer perfected a coating process called "Delfineren". After WW2 and until the mid nineteen-fifties they offered coating of old and new uncoated lenses.  This helps explain why the collector or shooter may come across early supposedly uncoated lenses that have been coated.  This is clearly a beautiful, rare and highly collectible lens that needs to be used or collected by someone who will take care of it.  I love using it, the bokeh and colours are fantastic!  I’m more of a shooter so I don’t really need such a rare beauty.  The buyer will be very happy with this purchase. It comes with:- the lens front cover- back cap- original Exakta EXA mount Serial Number: 956831Made in 1940Meter scale I am a long time eBayer (since 1998) with a perfect feedback record acquired from years of buying and selling on this platform. I have made every possible description and believe it accurate.  You should be pleased to acquire such a beautiful item.   Please bid often and with confidence. I buy and sell a lot of lenses and I'm also a shooter, so I can give an accurate description.  PLEASE READ: due to many new photographer’s misconceptions of older lenses ‘as new’, I list this item “as is, for parts only” and is not returnable.  It works well but it is not new and if you are addicted to flashlight tests please ask questions first. No lens hood included.  Shipping and insurance borne by the buyer.  I normally ship from Hong Kong but am on extended stay in Malaysia so I will ship from here using the local Post Office Services. Let me know if you want other postal services.  Any difference in shipping charges would be refunded or additional charges expected.   PLEASE CHECK OUT MY OTHER AUCTIONS!!!
