For your consideration: One Zeiss ZM 50mm, f2.0, Plannar T* manual focus lens for a Zeiss or Leica 35mm rangefinder camera (M mount). I bought this lens brand new several years ago and have been the only owner. The front and rear lens elements are in pristine condition, with no scratches or marks--only a bit of surface dust if one looks closely. I always kept a filter on the front, and the plastic protective cap on the back, unless of course the lens was on the camera (please be aware that a front filter is NOT include in this sale). Focus and aperture stops work smooth and sure--just as they have since this lens was new. Also, this lens has been kept in a climate controlled, smoke free environment.[Please take note: There is some black paint missing from the lens barrel / aperture ring from normal use. I have found that these particular Zeiss lenses tend to lose paint easier than other brands. I have 30 year old Canon FD lenses that have been very heavily used, and their black paint has held up better than my new Zeiss ZM lenses. I don't see this as a quality issue, because the mechanical and optical aspects of the Zeiss ZM lenses are really incredible.]This is a VERY sharp lens, and I have always been more than happy with the results. I really loved the ten blade aperture and 1/3 stop increments! I have used this lens wide open
