Description: STORED, SEALED for 20 years after factory LEICA CLA SERVICE! CAMERA/FILM TESTED! AWESOME LENS! SAWOM I sell a ton of Lenses, had several of these, and this is by far the NICEST glass I have seen on one! This lens was stored, in a sealed LEICA SERVICE bag until I became the owner. I've shot several rolls through it, and it's nothing short of amazing. There's a reason this is considered the best M street lens ever made! I prefer this lens to my 35mm V1 Summilux that's 4x the price. Glass is a 9.9/10, cleaned by Leica. Body is 9/10 with a couple bright marks, flea bites and an imperfection on the knurling for the aperture ring. Aperture and Focus/infinity lock are great. Fitment / lockup on an M camera is excellent. Factory front cap is snug and won't fall off. Some sample pics I took with an M6 and an M3 above. Unedited. (no the Camera is not included) from KEN ROCKWELL: This first version of the immortal LEICA SUMMICRON 35mm f/2, made by Ernst Leitz of Wetzlar, Germany, is among the finest 35mm lenses ever made. It is tiny, ultra-sharp, ultra-fast, and has no distortion. It is among my favorite 35mm lenses, especially for use on the world's best 35mm camera, the LEICA M3.As LEICA advertised at its introduction, it, along with the 50mm f/2 SUMMICRON and 90mm f/2 SUMMICRON, were the most advanced lenses yet created by man. They weren't kidding.This 50-year-old lens works marvelously well, especially on today's newest LEICA M9. -Serial #2098485-Made in 1968-Chrome plated brass body-Leica M mount-Chrome finish-Iconic first version 35mm chrome Summicron-Features the 8-element lens designAn all time classic lens, and all you would really ever need in a Leica lens.Details-Infinity focusing lock tab-Aperture range: f2 - f16-8 elements in 6 groups-Red and black focusing scale-E39 filter ring-Cat no. 11308 Fast shipping, worldwide.
