Voigtländer Heliar 165mm F3.5 !!
€990.00 EUR
Everybody knows and most love the Heliar lenses. They are known as one of the best portrait lenses out there. The standard Heliar will have a starting aperture of F4.5, but there are very few and elusive Heliars which were made with a starting aperture of F3.5. They offer even a thinner DOF then the standard version, and more room for selective work. This is one of those rare F3.5 Heliars out there.
It lens has a focal lenght of 165mm and will work best
with 4x5 and 5x7 formats.
Condition:
The metall is in a absolute nice condition, there is almost no wear to
the housing and the black laquere is in a good condition The glass is in
good condition also. The aperture is
working smoothly.
Interestingly this lens comes in a Helicoid housing, which can be moved forth and back by turning. This might be an interesting tool for campact box cameras without a fine focus or with short bellows extension.
Lens comes with a flange/mounting ring.
