Well I've sold my 90 and the 50 is next on the chopping board. A great lens that I only aquired 2 weeks ago. Selling due to needing more funds to aquire my new SLR kit. But I'll never sell my M6/35Lux ASPH!!!

The lens is in excellent condition with both front(new) and rear caps. It is the current version with built in hood (no box). PLUS aa LEICA E39 UV filter in excellent condition- no scratches.

Cosmetically, there is some paint wear (black paint has come off) from general usage (no drops or dents). Mechanically, the lens is perfect!!! The aperture clicks are great, no oil and focusing is super smooth and well damped. The hood action is also smooth and stays where it should when in and not in use. Glass is absoultely perfect and images are fanatstic.

I am able to ship in probably within the next week. I am currently waiting on the new lens cap I ordered from the states. Shipping will only take 2-5 days by Australia Post internationl courier. Payment must be by direct transfer to my account, as

Even though the paint wear is obvious it isn't that bad and overall this lens is excellent and MINT to a user. As with my other sales, first in best dressed so the first to email me will get first dibs. Don't miss out!

Thanks

I am interested. how may I pay you?

Why are you selling Leica and go for SLR? I thought you are a fan of Lecia M. Why the 50mm? I can understand the 90mm but not the 50mm.

Are you getting the Leica R?

-- Phyllis (phyllam@yahoo.com), May 08, 2002.

I am not selling my M gear. I love the M for 35mm/50mm lenses. I wasn't going to sell this lens but when I sold my 90 to finance a SLR and portrait lens, I found that I required more money. Otherwise this lens would not be for sale. If you are interested, please email me directly. I am still not too sure what SLR I'm getting. Maybe between a Contax RX and Nikon FM3 or F100, or even a Canon. It all dpends on what I can get for my money. I will not even consider Leica R- value wise doesn't appeal top me at all.
