Leica (aka Leitz) Vario-Elmar-R f4 70-210mm Zoom Lens. Lens is in beautiful condition. I'd say it's near mint. Very well taken care of with all the original packaging included. There are tiny bits of wear/dust on the body and mount, and some negligible teeny tiny dust in the optics--unavoidable for a lens manufactured decades ago--but nothing that would affect the image. The body and optics are about as pristine as you can get. Mechanically, the focus and zoom are buttery smooth. The aperture clicks as it should. The hood extends and retracts.
Comes with:
- front and rear caps
- original Leica leather case
- original Leica box
- original documentation, including a handbook, the original purchase receipt from Germany (!), and original warranty card.
The lens is 3-cam, which means it can be used on any corresponding Leica SLR. And it can be easily adapted for just about any digital camera, including Sony, Lumix, Canon, etc.
I personally shot photos of an eclipse with this lens, on my Lumix.
