Mechanics 9/10
-Focusing is smooth
-Aperture clicks are crisp

Optics 9/10
-No fungus, or scratches
-There is a spec of dust that is in the middle of the elements. No effect and insignificant but I want to mention it for the particular Leica collectors*


A wonderful RARE lens. Very desirable. Hard to find complete
Really a must have and a great investment
Proper 28mm BLACK PAINT 1st version
Undervalued for its rarity and desirability as the 35mm f2 sells for x5 the price along with the 50mm 1.4
This is THE ONLY 28mm black paint option and really THE one to have for collectors and the move involved black paint collectors

A pleasure to have and enjoy especially in this condition
