Hi,

I'm selling of a bunch of lenses I don't need. I could make pics but don't really see the added value. Pics can be requested but only if you're VERY serious about buying. I've sold a bunch of stuff on here and am a reputable seller. I've described all lenses accordinly (I think). If there's anything you'd like to know: just ask below.

I'm in Europe. Shipping in Europe is 10€ (add 8€ for track&trace). Shipping to the US/Canada/Anywhere else in the world is 18€ without track&trace and 25€ with track&trace.

You can find pictures made with the lenses online. All are great lenses. NS gets 10% off the prices listed below (except the Samyang)

- Samyang 35mm f/1.4 Canon mount.

What is there to say? Great lens in perfect condition. Comes with original front- and back cover as well as the lens hood. Original pouch included too.

350€

- Canon 85mm f/1.8. The lens that should be an L. I love this lens but sadly never use it. It has great character and is a joy to use. Glass is as good as it gets. Comes with both original caps and the Canon lens hood (another 40€). Orignal box and receipt of the lens are included.

275€

- Vivitar (Tokina made) 17mm f/3.5 RMC. Great lens. Ultra wide-angle at an affordable price. Glass is in great condition. This is the 67mm filter thread version, not the 77mm thread version which is much inferior.

OM-mount, can be adapted to Canon and M4/3

150€

- Mamiya-Sekor (Tomioka made) 60mm f/2.8 Macro - M42 mount. Does 1:1 (real life) magnification and is VERY sharp. Great lens in great condition. Glass is scratch-free and dust free.

One of the cheapest macro lenses around that does 1:1.

Can be adapter to Canon and M4/3

160€

- Olympus OM Zuiko 135mm f/3.5 - GREAT condition. Glass is scratch-free, fungus free, haze free. Aperture is oil-free and snappy as can be. Comes with both original caps and the original leather case. It's a TINY lens for a 135mm (the smallest I know) and the quality is amazing. Can be adapted to Canon and M4/3

40€

- Olympus OM ZUiko 135mm f/3.5 - Same lens. Also good condition. Comes with the original rear-cover and a generic lens cap. No case. Lens is scratch-free. Aperture is oil-free and snappy as can be. There's just a TINY bit (think 1mm) of dried-out fungus that hasn't grown in the year I've owned the lens. Doesn't affect image quality whatsoever. Can be adapted to Canon and M4/3

25€

- Super-Multi-Coated Takumar 135mm f/3.5. PERFECT condition. Comes with the original case, original lens hood, front cover and a generic back cover. This lens has the smoothest focus ring of any lens I've ever used bar some 2000$+ Leica lenses. M42 mount, can be adapted to Canon and M4/3.

40€

- Helios 44-2 58mm f/2 lens. Very smooth focus, preset aperture. Blades are oil-free and smooth. Glass is very clean and dust-free. The filter thread is dented, so using filters isn't an option. Can be adapted to Canon and M4/3

20€

- Soligor 200mm f/3.5. T2 mount. Comes with Canon EF adapter.

Focusing ring is stiff, but moves and is smooth, despite its stiffness. Actually a really good telephoto lens. Samples can be found online. Glass is clear. Comes with rear-cap and lens cap.

20€

- Tokina RMC 80-200 f/4.5. Haze on the front element. Can't comment on how it affects picture quality. I'll throw it in if anyone decides they want to buy 2 or more lenses from me!

 
I understand your concern, but I've never seen the point in photo's really. The sellers description is ten times more important than any picture could ever be. I could make pictures, but it's not like you're gonna see much on them...
 
Other than proof you have the lens, but yeah. Some people like to see pictures because its more of a comfort thing and it makes your sale look better.
 
but that's like, all your lenses?

Inb4 Leica + that 500c/m that you "borrowed"
 
Haha. Yeah, it's a bunch of my lenses. I haven't shot digital in 6 months. I still got about 10 left after I sell all these though. It just doesn't make any sense keeping all those lenses.

When the time is right, I'll go invest in a digital system again, but not now.
 
no, nobody's interested in buying something the can't see

come on in this day in age? not like it's a hassle...
 
Don't know why this is being downvoted.

If somebody sees a picture, they buy something and discover it was somewhat misleading, there's nothing they can do to return it. But if somebody outright states that there's no scratches, and they receive it and there's scratches, they can legally just return it.

Sure pictures might help a bit, but it wouldn't put me off at all, heck amazon doesn't have pictures(on used things) and it sure sells a lot of lenses
 
What the hell does it matter? And yes, uploading 6 pictures per lens and making them look good is quite a hassle. The way lenses are sold on NS makes me not want to buy them.

 
Wait it out, and then maybe you will find yourself posting pictures haha.

I'd be picking up a couple of these if I wasn't strapped for cash. Sorry to be of no help
 
We're going to have to agree to disagree on that. Let me know if you ever live in the states again though, would pick up some of this glass if shipping weren't so damn expensive.
 
I'll have to see what my bank balance looks like after I get paid at the end of the month, but if you still have the samyang 35 then I'll consider it.
