last chance before Ebay

[laptoprob]

Before putting these on Ebay I want to give the RFF community a chance.
I got a series of filters, caps and hoods, these ones do not match sizes I need:

Hood 12585
cap E49 14001 for 28/2,8; 135/3,4; 90/2 Summicron.
cap 42mm 14268 for 50/2 Summicron; 50/2,8 Elmar; 990/2,8 Tele-Elmar.
Also a metal one of the same size. Very used.
cap 65mm 14089 for 135/2,8 Elmarit (or 2,8/16 R and 180/3,4 R, sorry) This one has a crack due to its size.
E41 light yellow filter, for Summilux I think.
40,5 red and UV filters for Minolta (and others?)
25,5 Minolta UV filter.

Besides this I have a Summicron DR with glasses, hood 12585, beautiful metal cap and plastic old original Leitz rear cap. Clear lens, used condition glasses have cracks in the corners, but this does not hinder use.


Please make me an offer.

Rob.

Pics of the filters:

And of a new Voigtlander 35/2,5mm pancake (screwmount) black metal cap which will fit any lens of 50mm diameter.
And a new Minolta CLE strap with battery holder ofcourse!

Again, please make me an offer.

Rob.

How much do you want for the 12585?I need a hood for my 35/2 Vs, I've just bought a (obstructs the aperture 'flag'), a 39mm generic from Heavystar (39mm thread seems incorrect) and I'm getting desperate!

[laptoprob]

Well Paul,
They have been sold on Ebay for well over US$100. I think that is crazy. Something like $90 ex. shipping and other costs would be fair I think.

I bought my 40/2 Rokkor from Rob, you can trust him (great seller), so buy his stuff before someone on ebay gets it! :D

[laptoprob]

Thanks Todd,
I would be very much happier to sell the stuff here instead of on Ebay.
Some of the stuff seems to be quite rare.

Please let me know,

Rob.

Hmmm, I am very tempted by that nice DR Summicron, I could live without that hood...
Rob, what will be the price (without hood), if I succumb to that unfair temptation on offer :angel:

[SolaresLarrave]

The DR looks yummy.... If I hadn't just purchased a collapsible 'cron I'd make you an offer...

Good luck with the sale! :)

I'm interested in buying the 42 mm cap. Would it fit a 11819 Summicron 50 (made in 1981)?

[laptoprob]

The lens solo, without hood or caps would be something like $350. The glasses about $60.
If the 42mm cap fits a newer Summicron I would have to check. There are sites with all that info. Is it E39mm screw? That it will fit.

Rob.

[laptoprob]

Hi Wilt, Yes, it will fit!

Great - I am interested in buying the lens cap for the 50 summicron. Suggest a price.

Cheers,

Hi Gustav,
you can have the cap for 10 euros, OK? Shipping will not be much, an envelope will do.

So, the 42mm plastic cap is sold, the Summicron DR and the goggles are sold, I still have a 12585 hood and searching for all stuff I came across a 39mm Leitz orange filter and a Minolta 40,5mm UV filter.
Robin is thinking about those now.

Anyone knows about those filter sizes? Robin mentioned the Japanese Minolta lenses having other threads than the German Leitz lenses. (What about Leitz branded Minolta lenses?)
I know my B&W and Minolta filters fitted the 40mm Rokkor I sold to Todd very well. No difference in threads there. My other B&W filters mix very well with Leitz ones. (39mm Summicron ones).

Thanks a lot, Rob.

[SolaresLarrave]

Yup, the Minolta Rokkor have a 40.5mm filter size.

I'm amazed the 'cron already flew... :eek:

Apparently, RFF is becoming a hot spot! :)

[laptoprob]

So what about the CL lenses filter thread, is it really different?

Rob.

[laptoprob]

The M1, 2 or 3 take-up spool is also still available.

Rob.

[JNewell]

So what about the CL lenses filter thread, is it really different?

Rob.

Yes, the standard Leitz E39 thread is different from the thread on the CL lenses. You can cross-thread them and jam them on, but it isn't very secure and probably isn't even really parallel to the film plane.

[Little Prince]

I can confirm that the 'standard' 39mm thread (which is the same as the E39 thread) is different from the CL 39mm (C-Summicron) thread. The former is 39mmx0.5mm pitch and the latter is 39mmx0.75mm pitch. All regular 39mm filters produced today by prominent manufacturers (B+W, Heliopan, Hoya, etc.) seem to be 0.5mm pitch. I have this from contacting the manufacturers themselves. I have even tried a regular 39mm Hoya filter on the C-Summicron. It cross-threads of course, but goes in quite well. Maybe 1 rotation or so short but I found it quite securely in place without forcing it. But then that is quite difficult to measure, it is possible I had actually forced it a little without thinking I did.
