As RichardC has just shown us - it's a very capable lens

Okay LennyBloke I give up I've always wanted to try a f1.2 lens so if it's still for sale I'll have it off you please.
Thanks

Hi Mike - as you expressed an interest I have just checked the lens over and it's not working as it should
For some reason it won't stop down from maximum aperture so it won't be a lot of use to you unless you want to shoot everything in "Dreamarama" mode 
Really sorry about that, it was working a few months ago so I guess something has dried or seized up.So unless anyone wants to make me an offer for a lens they can repair I'll withdraw it from sale in this thread

Hi LennyBloke, okay thanks for letting me know, don't think I'll make an offer as I'm not at all sure I could fix it.
Best regards
Mike

The mount is not bare metal but black paint coated - this causes issues with metering until you get the right technique or remove the right area of paint to allow proper contact to be made.
This copy is in Very Good condition (probably the best one I have owned) - minor dust (typical for age), snappy, clean aperture and nice focus action (there is a slight "slip" at one point - very typical of these lenses).
If the lens is of interest to you please PM me and I'll take some photos (of and with) and add them to the listing.
At their peak these were selling for up to £350 but I think this is a more realistic price...
Price: £219 inc P&P (No Offers)
